What are lice and how can we identify them?

Lice are small, wingless, parasitic insects that live on the scalp of humans. They feed on small quantities of blood taken from the scalp. Identifying lice can be difficult due to their small size (2-3 mm) and ability to move quickly. Typical symptoms include intense itching caused by an allergic reaction to their bites.

How do lice spread among children and adults?

Lice are mainly transmitted by direct head-to-head contact, which explains why they are so common among children at school or during group activities. Sharing personal items such as hairbrushes, hats or scarves can also facilitate their spread.

What are the best methods for preventing head lice?

To prevent head lice infestation, we recommend avoiding direct head-to-head contact and not sharing personal items. Regular scalp checks are recommended, especially for children. The use of specific repellent products can also help prevent their appearance.

What treatments are effective in eliminating lice?

Head lice treatment may include the use of specific insecticide shampoos or lotions. It's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions to ensure effective treatment and prevent reinfestation. In addition, combing wet hair with a fine-toothed comb can help remove lice and nits.

How to manage nits and prevent their development?

Nits, the eggs of lice, need to be effectively treated to prevent re-infestation. They are usually firmly attached to the hair near the scalp. A specially designed fine comb is often needed to remove them completely. Repeated treatments may be necessary to intercept the lice life cycle.

Are there any natural remedies for head lice?

Although chemical treatments are often preferred for their effectiveness, natural remedies such as tea tree oil, coconut oil or vinegar can be used as complementary methods. These substances can help loosen nits and suffocate lice, although their effectiveness can vary.

When should I consult a healthcare professional about a lice infestation?

It is advisable to consult a healthcare professional if symptoms persist after treatment, if the infestation is severe, or if the patient suffers from health conditions that limit the use of standard insecticide treatments.

How can I distinguish lice from dandruff or other particles on the scalp?

Identifying lice from dandruff is crucial to appropriate treatment. Lice are small, mobile insects, and nits appear as yellow or brown dots firmly attached to the hair. Dandruff, on the other hand, is a loose flake of skin, usually white or grayish in color.

Can hair dyes be used to eliminate lice?

The use of hair dyes to treat lice is not a proven method and may not be effective. Hair colorants contain chemicals that can kill adult lice, but are less likely to eliminate nits. It's best to opt for treatments specifically designed for lice.

Can head lice transmit disease?

Unlike other types of lice, head lice are not known to transmit disease. Their main impact is on the comfort of the infested person, including itching and irritation, but they do not transmit pathogens harmful to health.

How should clothing and bedding be treated in the event of a lice infestation?

It's important to treat the environment in the event of a lice infestation to prevent reinfestation. Washing clothing, bedding and other fabrics in contact with the head at a temperature of at least 60°C can help kill lice. Non-washable items can be placed in a closed plastic bag for at least 72 hours to suffocate any remaining lice.

How long does a louse live outside the human head?

Head lice need human blood to survive. Outside the scalp, they can generally live for only 24 to 48 hours. This means that the risk of transmission by objects is relatively low, but not impossible, hence the importance of cleaning accessories and fabrics in contact with the hair.
