Being infected with head lice does not make you filthy. The majority of people contract head lice when they come into direct touch with another person who is infected. The lice can spread from one head to another by head-to-head contact. No matter how clean or unclean the person’s hair is, lice will still live there. Because they require human blood to thrive, lice are searching for victims.

Each year, millions of people contract head lice. Schools are particularly susceptible to headlice infestations. It is estimated that 6 to 12 million children between the ages of 3 and 12 in the United States contract head lice each year.

Although head lice are not known to transmit disease, they can cause your scalp to become quite itchy. Scratching excessively can result in scalp sores that could become infected. Because the itch is so severe, some people have trouble sleeping. The majority of people can treat themselves at home to get rid of head lice. You should visit a dermatologist for a head lice treatment if you struggle to get rid of the lice or get an illness from scratching. Watch this video for more information.
