MYTH: Head lice infestation (pediculosis) is most likely to occur among people with poor hygiene.
FACT: People who have long, unkempt hair and dirty scalps are no more vulnerable to pediculosis than anyone else. Head lice (Pediculus humanus capitis) don't discriminate on the basis of hygiene or socioeconomic status; they happily infest anyone with enough hair and blood to support them. In fact, they prefer a clean environment to a dirty one.
More...Human head lice (pediculus human capitis) are prolific, and the females will lay between 50 to 300 eggs, or nits within their life cycle. The females start laying eggs in just one day's time, with those eggs hatching in eight or nine days later. Lice nits or eggs are tiny yellow ovals firmly attached to the hair shaft. The adult lice can vary slightly in color, but are usually light brown.
In the past few years, head lice have become a national year-round problem. Time Magazine reports in its January 1998 issue, "that lice infestation in America has risen to the epidemic level of 10 to 12 million a year." Head lice show no discrimination; they are found in clean or dirty environments, all ethnic households, different climates, in all ages and from east to west and north to south.
