About head lice
Having head lice is not harmful to health. Head lice are only able to live on humans. They are usually passed on by head - to head contact; brief hair contact is enough. In contrast to popular belief, head lice are not able to fly or jump, but they do use their six legs to grip hair firmly. Head lice suck blood every two to three hours; this is what causes the irritation. When separated from their human hosts, head lice die within twenty-four hours. NB: It is generally assumed that head lice can be picked up from textiles; however, this is not possible. Head lice are a brown color and grow during their development from approximately 0.5mm to a size of 3 mm. Head lice are often discovered because the child experiences itchiness on the head. A child who has recently been infested with head lice may not feel any itchiness at all. Adult head lice lay between five and nine eggs a day. Their brown-colored eggs stick to the hair and are found close to the scalp because it is warm. The young lice hatch after a period of approximately seven to nine days. The empty eggs are referred to as nits and continue to stick to the hair. These white-coloured nits no longer contain any living head lice. How can you detect head lice?
• The brownish head lice can be recognized by their crawling movement. If fewer head lice are present a more careful search should be undertaken. Head lice that are difficult to spot can be removed with a special nit comb. • The white eggs (nits), from which the head lice have already hatched, remain stuck to the hair. This means that the nits do not work themselves loose and can only be removed by combing the entire length of the hair. • It is possible to spot brownish lice eggs, which contain the growing larvae, close to the scalp.

naturally infected humans in Egypt
Zoology department, Faculty of Science Cairo University, Giza, Egypt. Sixty boys and girls aged between 4-15 with large amounts of head lice, were selected and subjected to the treatment with a shampoo based on Neem seed extract. Twenty to thirty milliliters of the shampoo was thoroughly applied to wet hair and thoroughly rubbed into the scalp. The shampoo was rinsed after five, ten, fifteen and thirty minutes and the hair was combed. The head lice were collected and examined.
