What is the quickest way to get past a case of head lice?
There is no shortcut. Tedious, time consuming nitpicking and checking everyone with whom the person has had contact is the first step toward eliminating head lice. A good comb (when used properly) can eliminate up to 85 percent of the problem. Even when you think you have done the job right, don’t let your guard down. The life cycle of lice is three weeks, so keep checking during that time period.
