This is why when you are looking for bugs or eggs in your child’s hair you don’t see anything. Head lice can move like crabs in the hair - forwards, backwards, sideways, diagonal - and they avoid movement and bright light. So it’s a bit like hide and seek until you get an explosion of bugs and eggs and you see them everywhere (usually around the 4 week mark). Eggs measure 0.8 mm in length and 0.3 mm in width - not quite microscopic but small indeed. Put your mind to rest, when in doubt check it out!

A lot of people incorrectly believe lice will be all over their couch or cushions once one of their children has head lice. This may be true for other human parasites but not really for head lice. They much prefer staying put on your scalp. They’ll migrate to another scalp though because they can smell ‘new territory’! Get the facts, call or text Nit Hunters Ottawa Lice Removal ☺️

See those big dark adult lice? Those are all females - they can lay up to 10 eggs a day! In an infestation there are more females than males. This is because you only need just one male bug - the “stud” - to fertilize the females. The more females who lay eggs the faster the colony can grow and spread to more heads!
