Today's Q&A
Q: What do lice and nits (eggs) look like?
A: Lice are gray bugs that are approximately 1/16th of an inch long, move quickly and are difficult to see. The nits are white eggs firmly attached to the hair shafts close to the scalp. Nits hatch into lice in about a week. On the scalp, where they have a blood supply, head lice live for about three weeks, but off the scalp, they only live 24 hours. The hatched eggs mature, mate and lay eggs, and if not treated, the life cycle continues.

Todays Q: How are lice spread?

A: Head lice live only on human beings and are transmitted by direct contact with people who have head lice OR by using their combs, hats, clothing or bedding. Lice cannot hop or jump. The spread of lice does not have to do with cleanliness or hygiene, and any child who is exposed can get head lice. Notify your child’s teacher or school nurse if your child has head lice & then call Duluth Lice Removal for help! 507-338-3164
