Name 5 people in your social circle who are comfortable with the idea of head lice… Not even a single person! This is an incredibly touchy subject even in this age and time. Having head lice is even touchier, considering how people still view others with head lice in a bad light.
Just thinking about lice and its removal is enough to bring the shivers on full blast. How will you remove this menace from your child’s head?
Not everyone is an advocate of lice removal shampoos that have more negatives than positives when it comes to treatment. However removing lice by yourself isn’t easy and requires patience and lots of effort.
Hopefully the following information about head lice will make the head lice process relatively easier.
Of course there is always Urgent Lice Removal’s reliable and effective lice removal treatment that will save you a lot of time, effort, and money.
Regardless… keep the following in mind:
There is a huge difference between fleas and lice… much the same as with pubic and head lice. The common head louse can only live and breed on a human host’s scalp. This means you cannot catch head lice from your pets – even though lice can hitchhike on your cat and cling onto your head.
Similarly, there is a large difference between head and pubic lice.
A common misconception is that lice can fly and jump which is why transmission rate is so high. In fact, lice cannot perform either action which is probably good news for parents. Then how do lice infest other people’s heads so quickly?
Lice spread mostly through direct head to head contact. This is probably why more children get head lice than adults.
Humans have been facing this plague since we first began to wear clothes. This was the time when pubic and head lice separated, causing humans a whole lot of trouble and discomfort. Today a special strain of head lice has taken center stage especially in the USA.
‘Super’ lice are resistant to popular insecticides that have been packaged as OTC lice removal solutions by manufacturers.
These are lice eggs, attached tightly to hair strands with glue-like substance. Most lice removal shampoos aren’t ovicidal meaning nits cannot be killed. It’s really important to remove all nits when killing lice as even a few left will bring another infestation.
The only way to remove nits from hair is manual nit combing. The only way to guarantee reduced chances of a lice re-infestation is visiting your nearest Urgent Lice Removal treatment center in Winter Park! Make an appointment today and enjoy an affordable inspection service!
