Head lice are small parasitic insects. Head lice are about the size of a sesame seed and live on the human scalp. They are brownish, tan or gray in color and move by crawling.
Lice do not jump or fly, and do not transmit diseases. They feed on human blood and without it they can’t survive. Head lice can only live on human scalps.

No one who is pregnant, under the age of 2, has a history of seizures, or is allergic to ragweed will be given treatment.
One household member can purchase treatments for the entire family.
