Where are children most commonly exposed to head lice?
Head lice are spread through head to head contact, so they may be contracted anywhere that close interaction occurs. Schools are often blamed as breeding grounds for lice, but head lice are no more common in schools than anywhere else. Children are equally likely to come in contact with lice outside school; at camp, sleepovers, sports activities, theater troupes, birthday parties, daycares, etc.
