Lice Specialists FAQ in Lynnwood, WA

How long can lice stay dormant?

Off the host, adult head lice can live about two to four days at 74 degrees Fahrenheit (F) and one to two days at 86 degrees. Nits will remain alive off the host for up to 10 days; they will not hatch at or below room temperature (68 degrees F).

Can you grab lice with your fingers?

Eggs and nits also stick to the hair shaft, so they don’t come off easily. If you try to pull one out of the hair with your fingers, it won’t budge—it will move only if you use your nails to get behind it and force it off.

How do you get rid of lice permanently?

Benzyl alcohol (Ulesfia). This lotion kills active lice, not eggs. Ivermectin (Sklice). This lotion kills most head lice, even just-hatched lice, with just one use. Malathion (Ovide). This very strong lotion paralyzes and kills lice and some lice eggs. Spinosad (Natroba).

What happens if you have lice for years?

If you’re infested with body lice for a long time, you may experience skin changes such as thickening and discoloration — particularly around your waist, groin or upper thighs. Spread of disease. Body lice can carry and spread some bacterial diseases, such as typhus, relapsing fever or trench fever.

Is rubbing alcohol good for lice?

However, rubbing alcohol is not an FDA-approved treatment for head lice. Nor has it been proven to have any effect on head lice. One of the most common uses of rubbing alcohol is as a disinfectant. It’s often used in the medical field to sterilize surgical tools, and clean skin before injections or blood draws.

What doctor do I see for lice?

If your child has head lice, a dermatologist can tell. A dermatologist can also recommend an effective treatment for your child. This may be one of the prescription treatments. Sometimes, simply combing your child’s hair to remove the lice and nits (eggs) can be effective.

Do nits survive on bedding?

Lice and nits can live on pillows and sheets. Lice glue their eggs to the hair strands of their host. However, if a piece of hair with an egg falls out while the lice host is sleeping, an egg could end up on pillows or sheets.

Do you need to quarantine with lice?

Children diagnosed with live head lice do not need to be sent home early from school; they can go home at the end of the day, be treated, and return to class after appropriate treatment has begun. Nits may persist after treatment, but successful treatment should kill crawling lice.

What happens if lice infestation goes untreated?

If you’re infested with body lice for a long time, you may experience skin changes such as thickening and discoloration — particularly around your waist, groin or upper thighs. Spread of disease. Body lice can carry and spread some bacterial diseases, such as typhus, relapsing fever or trench fever.

Should I go to work if I have lice?

If you have live lice in your hair, then that’s easy to transmit to others. If you don’t and you just have the nits or the eggs, it’s okay to be around others. So it’s not going to pass on. You can go back to school, you can go back to work.

What kind of Listerine kills lice?

We are pleased to hear that the amber Listerine worked so well to treat lice. We suspect it too works by suffocating them. The herbal oils in Listerine, such as eucalyptol, thymol, menthol and methyl salicylate, may also discourage lice.

Can you leave Nix on longer than 10 minutes?

For example, some recommend leaving Nix® on for 4 to 8 HOURS … instead of 10 minutes. Sometimes even overnight under a shower cap. Or they prescribe Elimite® cream for head lice … and leave it on overnight too.
