Almost everyone knows what head lice are, but do they know the facts vs. myths?
Myth #1 - Head lice are a result of not being clean. Anyone can get head lice no matter how many times you bathe yourself each day.
Myth #2 - Head lice can jump from one persons's hair to another. Lice cannot jump, they can only crawl.
Myth #3 - Treatment of only the hair will get rid of head lice. Lice can live off the human body for about 24 hours, so you must remove all clothing and launder right away.
Myth #4 - If all the bugs are out of the hair, head lice treatment is over. You must be sure to remove all of the eggs as well.
Myth #5 - Any kind of shampoo will remove the head lice. Special treatment is necessary to remove head lice and eggs.
