Interesting Facts About
Head Lice

From Schooltime® Products

  • Did you know that baby lice are called “nymphs?”

  • Did you know that a person cannot “catch” headlice from a pet? Human lice stay with humans, and pet/animal lice stay with pets.

  • Did you know that combing Schooltime® Shampoo through the hair using a regular hair comb right before the final rinse will help remove nits and lice? Using a nit comb will assure hair is 100% clear.
  • Did you know that after the hair is clean of lice, Schooltime® Shampoo can be used as a regular shampoo 2 times per week (a small amount lathered on wet hair as a family shampoo) to help the hair remain clear of lice. This has been clinically tested and proven.
  • Did you know that finding nits in the hair does not mean there is an active lice infestation? These nits may be dried and old.
  • Did you know that most nits found in the hair further than ¼ inch from the scalp have already hatched or will never hatch?
  • Did you know that nits are laid near the scalp because when baby lice hatch they must be near to their blood meal at the scalp surface?
  • Did you know that baby lice are called “nymphs?”
  • Did you know that lice can walk or run, but they do not jump or fly?
  • Did you know that some people do not have symptoms of itching even though they may be infested with headlice? Some people do not have an allergy to the lice bites.
  • Did you know that lice do not leave the head unless they accidentally fall out or are washed out?
  • Did you know that lice will die within 24 hours of being off of a scalp? Nits can remain viable (hatchable) for several weeks.
