Head lice and infestations in UK Schools
Head lice and infestations in UK Schools?
Head lice "nits" are endemic in schools does the school have to keep record of occurrence's of head lice and do they have to pay particular attention if a child is continually infested. I feel my child is being singled out as every time i get clear of them they return. I change everything lining etc.

I have boys and not to say that boys don't bring home lice, they do. I had never dealt with lice until my seven year old neice moved in with us. It was a pain in the ass. We finally go rid of it by washing everthing, buying those flea/tick bombs and setting them off when we were not home and I found the best head treatment at lice killer.com. The kit u get from there come with a lice prevention spray and after we got rid of it, and using that spray on her head daily, we never got it back.

Unfortunately Head lice are a nuisance. But your question is somewhat ambigous. How do you feel your child is being singled out? Is it because the lice keep returning? You see, there will be one, or two mothers who aren't as caring or concerned as you. They are the ones that ignore the problem of head lice, and changing bed sheets, clothes, everything, and will probably do the "lets cut their hair" method * which doesn't work*. And the chances are your child, is unfortunately left being constantly riddled with the mites, and although head lice are just as much attracted to clean hair as they are to dirty, the stigma of the 'unkept child' still exists. You should maybe speak to the school, as they can only do so much, like hand out leaflets to all the children and get them to bring them home. But you could try head lice repellant, and spray your child in the morning and evening. It doesn't kill them, but you may not have to dose your child so often. With regards to your school question, they will take a note if there is one child is constantly infected, as this would usually be an indication that the care is not at home, but thats all they can do. Just keep doing what your doing, and pat on the back for you caring Mum! And if your that concerned, maybe go and speak to the head/principal.

I live in the US our school system handles these situations very carefully. If a child is discovered to have head lice they are automatically taken out of class and sent home. They are not allowed to return to school until the problem has been treated. When they do return to school the parent has to walk them in to see the school nurse where they are checked again for lice and nits. If any are found, they are sent back home. With extreme reoccurring problems the department of children services is called. Treat the child with a different lice shampoo than you have been using. The lice may have become imune to the shampoo you are using. Make sure to get the spray and spray the matresses and carpets. Take all stuffed animals, pillows, coats, anything cloth that is bulky and either tie it in a plastic bag and let it sit for 48 hours or you can throw them in the dryer o high heat for 30 min. Treat your hair and bedding too. Boil all hair brushes hair ties and combs. Spray the couch with lice killing spray I found that RID works better than Nix. Make sure to use the nit comb while the childs hair is still wet. I have actually let the shampoo sit on the child for the alotted time and the combed the hair with the nit comb before rinsing. If this is a small child I would not recomend this because of the toxisity of the shampoo. Another thing you can do to prevent catching them is switch to a shampoo that contains tea tree oil. It is more exspensive but lice don't like it and it is very good for your hair. Talk to your child about staying away from children that scratch their heads a lot. Tell him or her not to share jackets hairbrushes hair ties etc.. It also helps to keep the chils hair tied up and braided it gives the lice nothing to grab onto and climb up to the scalp. I hope this helps

Sorry but I can not help you with the 'singling out in school problem', my expertise lies in getting rid of head lice, for good. The ONLY safe way to get rid of head lice permanently is to use a totally natural alternative to the chemical shampoos then use prevention methods such as hairspray and tea tree mixed with water in a spray bottle every day to ensure they never return. Before you listen to anyone advising you to use a pesticide treatment please consider the following: No chemical head lice treatment is legally allowed to be labeled as 'safe' as every insecticide is a poison. They are also ineffective as head lice have become immune to them. Luckily there are quite a few totally natural remedies available that readily kill head lice. Suffocation is an effective method where oil based products (i.e.: conditioner) are used to block the breathing holes and kill the live lice. The real trick though is to find natural products that will kill both the live lice and their eggs in one fast effective treatment. Remedies containing Neem Oil are known to be highly effective as Neem interrupts the growth and reproduction of the head louse. Neem’s insecticidal properties are widely recognized now and the oil is commonly available at your local health food store. Feel free to check out the articles at the following site for more advice. Good luck.
