They do not have anything to do with dirty hair and are picked up by head-to-head contact.<\/p>\n Head lice are tiny insects<\/a>\u00a0that only live on humans. The eggs are grey or brown and about the size of a pinhead which stick to the hair, close to the scalp. The eggs hatch in 7 to 10 days. Empty eggshells (nits) are white and shiny and are found further along the hair shaft as they grow out.<\/p>\n Head lice are spread by direct head-to-head contact and therefore tend to be more common in children because of the way they play. They cannot jump, fly or swim. Itching and scratching occurs 2 to 3 weeks after coming into close contact with someone who has headlice.<\/p>\n Exclusion is not required.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Head lice and nits \u2013 NHS.UK<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Providing support for families Things can be tricky at home and this section has lots of great resources if you feel that this may help you\/your family through difficult times.
