Just been checking DD hair for the dreaded headlice, please tell me lockdown has finally eradicated them and they are gone the way of the dinosaur 🦕🦕🦕

Has anyone seen some lately?

My daughter had them this week. She's never had them before.

@iusedtohavechickens I've never found that combing works it could be my DDs have curly hair but we could never get them all, only silicone worked. Plus repeating it every 5-7 days a couple of times.

That's the problem, I think. People don't re-treat their children and/or don't spend long enough combing them out.

I've got two boys with short hair and whenever they've had them, I've spent ages going through their hair.

Typically, we've had a text message today saying that there is another case in my youngest's class.
