Did you comb the eggs out?

Bet thing I found works u a comb from boots called the Nitty Gritty Nit comb it's about a tenner but cones with life time guarantee and it's excellent. Doesn't matter how clean you are he would've caught them off other kids. My dd got them at nursery. Use a good nit comb with some conditioner or some headlice remover stuff

He got them from school. Buy a nit comb, a nitty gritty is best, use loads of conditioner, and comb them out. It's easy if he's got short hair.

Comb every couple of days for the next couple of weeks.
