Your children getting head lice is probably one of worst fears of a parent and yet it is one of most common health problems. If your children grow up without ever catching them you are lucky indeed.

Head lice cannot jump, they crawl from head to head which is why they are so common amongst children who tend to sit close together. If your child does get infected it is wise to wash all bedding and treat furniture where their heads may have rested, but healthy head lice tend to stay on heads rather than move. However sharing combs or brushes where lice may have been removed during combing will spread them.

The life cycle of lice is about a month. The lice eggs or nits are attached to hair close to scalp and are very hard to remove. They hatch in 7 to 10 days and reach adulthood in another 6 to 10 days. They then live for another 20 days laying about 10 eggs a day.

Head lice are difficult to treat and to prevent infection recurring, vigilance is needed to ensure that no eggs remain to hatch. Not everyone actually gets an itchy head so if someone in family is infected all heads should be checked. Some people find idea quite horrendous, when my granddaughter became infected my daughter would shake when she was trying to remove them. As a primary school teacher I had seen so many infected children I was unmoved.
