Lice can roam freely on your children's heads 365 days a year. During the school year live<\/a><\/span><\/strong> and move from head to head. And the females lay 3 to 4 eggs per day, sowing with nits all the hairs near the nape of the neck and behind the ears, but when is it lice season?<\/p>\n

And although we cannot confine lice to a few months of the year, it is true that\u00a0there are times when head lice are most active.<\/strong> Females lay more eggs; these hatch and the nymphs grow more easily. This is what we could call the 'lice season'.<\/p>\n

The lice season starts in summer<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

The golden age for the growth of the Pediculus humanus capitis<\/a><\/em><\/span>\u00a0is during the summer. The warmth of these months is a favourite with lice, mosquitoes and many other insects. That's why it's important to take measures to keep them at bay.<\/p>\n

According to research, heat makes it easier for nits to open up<\/strong>. And even though the kids are out of school, there are other places where they can also get head lice.<\/p>\n

A sandy space, for example, is conducive to infestation. Sand allows nits to continue their incubation for up to 15 hours after they have been removed from the hair.<\/p>\n

Swimming pool or sea water is not a problem. Lice do not swim although they can survive in chlorinated water for about 24 hours.<\/strong>. The louse in water remains immobile (clinging to the hair) because it cannot swim. And it is unlikely to break off unless it dies. The six legs of the\u00a0Pediculus humanus capitis are short but with a structure and articulations\u00a0<\/em>which make them function as perfect fastening hooks.<\/p>\n

As we have mentioned in other articles, the louse does not jump and does not fly because it has no wings. Therefore, transmission occurs by direct contact between an infested person and another infested person.<\/strong>. This makes the following sites suitable for propagation:<\/p>\n
