HOME CARE

anna6.25.2.png

The environment does not play as important a role as it was once thought, so we recommend common-sense cleaning. Lice do not survive off the host for more than 24 hours. Consider what items you or your family member has had contact with in that time period and keep your focus on cleaning those items only. With this said, Asheville Lice recommends the following:

     *Remove all hair from brushes and combs. Wash with hot water

     and soap.

     *Live bugs? Dry bedding in dryer on HIGH for 45 minutes.

     *Light vacuum in high traffic carpeted areas.

     *Cloth furniture? Light vacuum or throw a sheet over it for a day.

     *Cloth car seats? Use a lint roller.

     *Toys or dolls on the bed? Dry in dryer on HIGH for 45 minutes or

     set aside for a day or roll with a lint roller.

     *Be a friend, tell a friend.

If you or your child has had head to head contact with anyone in the time-frame that you might have had lice, let them know they need to be checked.
