Where Do Head Lice Hide?
Head lice eggs (nits) can be found firmly attached to the hair shaft. Adult head lice are most commonly found on the scalp. Look behind the ears and near the neckline at the back of the neck. Head lice hold on to hair with hook-like claws found at the end of each of their six legs. Note that head lice are rarely found in other body hair, eyelashes, or eyebrows.

Most of these are the equivalent of bug sprays. Do you want these poisons on or in your child? Probably not. Keep reading to find a home remedy for
head lice that works for you.
