Advice and opinions from pharmacy experts
To combat lice infestations, it's essential to eliminate all stages of the insect's development, i.e. adults, larvae and eggs (nits), to truly get rid of the problem. Lice have no natural enemies, and a female louse can lay up to 10 nits a day, or 300 during her adult life (see diagram opposite). Proliferation can thus be extremely rapid.
Lice can survive for up to 2 days outside the scalp. Lice can therefore be transmitted :
- Directly: from head to head (via the exchange of clothing: scarf, cap, etc.);
- indirectly: lice can survive for up to 36 hours outside the scalp. Lice can therefore be transmitted via household textiles (sofa, pillows, stuffed toys, car seats, etc.).
It's important not to let children scratch too often, as this could lead to lesions and, more seriously, a bacterial skin infection.
