Why is lice so common right now?!
Head lice are the nuisance that no parent ever wants to deal with, but they are so common! Lice infestations are at an all time high recently for a couple of reasons. First, the AAP (American Academy of Pediatrics) changed national protocol stating that children are not to be sent home for active Lice any longer from public schools. As a professional in the industry, I do agree that children should not be missing valuable school hours, which also results in parents missing work, due to head lice. While lice are panic inducing, they are not an actual health threat.While this change is troublesome to parents and caregivers, there are easy solutions and changes that can be made. With these changes in protocol, School should be upping their notification process. If parents are more in the know and are regularly checking their children’s hair, what could be a massive lice outbreak in a school district is easily contained. The other reason that Lice are sweeping through school so rapidly is because there is a lack of knowledge when it comes to treatment options. While home treating is extremely difficult and time-consuming, it can be done with the proper products. It has been well known for many years that pesticide-based products are no longer effective at killing super lice. Most caregivers purchase a pesticide based over-the-counter treatment, use at one time, and assume that an infestation is cleared when in reality home treatment takes diligent daily combing for 10 to 14 days. It’s not the product, it’s the actual removal process.
