Why Lice Are So Hard to Get Rid Of
Head lice are miniature parasites that live in human hair and feed off your blood. A full infestation takes no more than 2 weeks to happen. So how can you get head lice? And how to get rid of them?

The thing is that head lice have grown almost immune to any poisons we have at our disposal. So are there any surefire ways to defeat them? Actually, there are, and we’re gonna tell you about the most effective of them!

SUMMARY:
– All it takes to have yourself a good and healthy lice colony in your head is just one little louse. Lice lay about 5–10 nits (or eggs) a day, which hatch in about 7 days.
– Head lice are most often transmitted from person to person directly, when you touch someone else’s head with yours, or indirectly, when you share a hat or scarf with someone.
– It all starts with a nit that’s simply too small and clingy to be seen and disposed of. The parent louse lays it right at the root of a hair.
– They can hold their breath for 8 hours, so if you take a shower or bath, they’ll most certainly survive.
– By the way, there’s a common misconception that people who don’t wash their head regularly are more likely to get head lice. That’s totally false.
– While their life span is about 30 days on your head, it’s much smaller in your clothes: about 1–2 days at the most.
– If any one kid out of the group is already affected, the whole bunch of them will probably get the parasites too.
– The most effective treatments are those that simply suffocate the lice. There are different sprays, creams, and shampoos out there that block lice’s airways, preventing them from breathing.
– Whenever you use any treatment to get rid of head lice, use a fine-toothed comb 8 to 12 hours later. Even if the parasites don’t survive your attack, they won’t come off your head by themselves.
