Head lice

What are head lice?
Head lice (Pediculus humanus capitis) are tiny wingless insects about two millimetres long which live on the scalp and neck of humans.When an infestation occurs there may be up to 12 adult lice on the scalp at any one time. They feed from human blood and must eat at least twice a day; they cannot survive for more than one day at room temperature off a human body. A female louse can lay eggs at the rate of about six per night up to a total of 100. The yellow-white eggs, called nits, are stuck to the hair close to the scalp. As the hair grows, so the nits (or their empty shells) are carried away from the scalp and are more easily visible. Nits can often be mistaken for dandruff, flakes of dry skin or other small items caught in the hair.
What causes head lice and who is at risk?
Head lice cannot fly and they cannot jump from one person to the next; they are not transmitted from household pets or other animals. Instead, when they are caught, it is usually through head-to-head contact or by sharing hair accessories, such as hair-brushes, combs, hats or even by putting these items on top of each other. Head lice can also survive for short times on bedding and furniture. Children are particularly prone to infestation with head lice as they often have close contact with each other at school or when playing. There is no link between the presence of head lice and a lack of hygiene or susceptibility to infection.
How do I recognise head lice?
The only way of confirming an infection with head lice is by seeing either the adult lice or their eggs in the hair. The following are important:

clean, tangle-free hair,

bright light, especially natural light,

use of a fine comb – special ‘nit-picking’ combs are available in chemists (use plastic rather than metal ones and start combing at the roots of the hair),

using a magnifying glass may be helpful.

What is the treatment for head lice?
Self-care action plan
The recommended treatment is the systematic removal of live lice by wet combing with conditioner. The Bug Busting method should be repeated at 3-5 day intervals for two weeks (nits take 7-10 days to hatch, and 6-13 days to mature enough to reproduce.
It is important to check the hair of all the members of an affected household, and to treat everyone who has head lice, to prevent repeated cross-infection within the family.
Complementary therapy
Some anecdotal evidence suggests that other methods may work on head lice. These include:

essential oils, which are potentially highly toxic if swallowed, can cause burns if used directly on skin, and are not safe in repeated use,

hair gel and olive oil have been used to ‘suffocate’ lice on the scalp, but no definite evidence shows that this technique works,

Do not use the heat from hair dryers to kill lice; although the temperature is hot enough to kill some of the lice, the hot air can also scald the scalp and damage hair.

Head Lice Treatment

Head lice are parasitic wingless insects. They live on people’s heads and feed on their blood. head lice is very common problem. Many people get head lice in the United States each year. Head lice are tiny (pin-head sized) grey-brown, wingless insects, which live by sucking blood from the scalp. Their eggs are known as nits and they are laid glued to the base of hairs, and look like tiny white specks. The eggs hatch after 7 to 10 days, and 10 to 14 days after hatching the lice are mature and between 2 and 4 mm long (the size of a sesame seed). Head lice are common in schoolchildren, particularly between the ages of 4 and 11, but anyone with hair can catch them. The earliest and most common symptom of a head lice infestation is itching, particularly in the area behind the ears and at the nape of the neck.

Intense scratching may lead to secondary bacterial infection. Head lice can’t live on pets, such as cats or dogs. There are a number of very effective treatments for head lice. The most important step in treating head lice is to treat the person and other family members with medicine to kill the lice. Malathion works as well as other agents used to kill lice. Malathion must be left on for at least eight hours for it to work. Pyrethrin and permethrin are quite safe to humans. Lindane, however, can be toxic.Permethrin may work better than lindane, though most trials were done before permethrin was widely used and resistance to the drug developed. Pyrethrins are used as a 0.33% shampoo or mousse. Never use gasoline or kerosene. These products can be extremely dangerous.

Aromatherapy has been frequently used to treat for lice, but this has not been confirmed as a viable treatment. Herbal treatments ( tea tree oil) are sometimes used to treat head lice. Avoid head-to-head contact common during play at school and at home. Do not lie on beds, couches, pillows, carpets, or stuffed animals that have recently been in contact with an infested person. Do not share clothing, such as hats, scarves, coats, sports uniforms, or hair ribbons. Don’t leave the shampoo or rinse in hair longer than directed. Rinse hair well after the treatment. Regular combing of hair using the bug-busting method can help with early detection as well as treatment. If your child has long hair, tie it back as this helps to reduce the likelihood of contact between their hair and that of an infected child.
