If you have been living in the desert, Iraq, Iran, Saudia Arabia, etc., or if you've been hiking across Cochise County take a bath!
Wash your head first, then your butt. Do not put the same clothes back on.
Try some clean freshly washed ones for the first time in months and you'll be surprised that people downwind from you don't give you a dirty look and walk away anymore.
They may call the Border Patrol or the ICE office but they won't be offended because you stink.

Who cares how many types of lice there are! They are just nasty...period. I am so glad all my kids are finally out of grade school...they would bring that stuff home at least once or twice a year. I can believe this study though. They always brought home the head variety and it never went anywhere else.

The M1-A1 flamethrower is the ideal parasite tool. If you suspect someone is a parasite or is infected with parasites this is the tool to defend yourself.

Seems like over kill, but sometimes over kill is what's needed.
I say we stand off and nuke the site from orbit, it's the only way to be SURE.

I am so glad all my kids are finally out of grade school...they would bring that stuff home at least once or twice a year. Ditto on the grade school. My kids only had it twice the whole time they were in grade school but that was enough for me. The first time I shaved their heads. Things got better after the school got a nit lamp.

The only time we got lice was after a trip to Disneyland.
It was awful!
To: austinmark
Actually, it makes sense. Lice actually like clean hair. One way to help prevent lice is to use lots of hair products: hairspray, gel, etc.
To: luckystarmom
I'm just thankful that it never spread in the house. Having 4 females, all with really long hair...what a nightmare that would have been.

Wash your head first, then your butt. If you're Dan Rather, you can wash both at the same time.

It was often reported in the KZ lagers and the camps of the
Gulag that the inmates and zeks could tell when a person died because the lice would leave the body in a wave to find new hosts.
Have to go now, and try and find my bottle of Pyronite.
Yes, John Kerry IS a louse!
