Head Lice Prevention

A head lice infestation can throw any household into turmoil. The best way to avoid this is to understand how lice are spread, and to learn a few key head lice prevention techniques. 

Head Lice Prevention Tips 

The most common way to contract head lice is by hair-to-hair contact. Head lice can also be spread by sharing clothing or belongings with an infected person. Teach these head lice prevention tips to your family:

• Avoid “head-to-head” contact during sports and playtime.
• Don’t borrow or share personal items that contact the head, including combs, brushes, hats, scarves, sporting helmets, hair ties, head bands, etc.
• If someone you know is infested, avoid laying on their furniture, pillows or sleeping bags. While it’s not likely that you’ll catch head lice this way, it’s better safe than sorry.
