Where are head lice most commonly found?

0

Lice need warmth as well as food from their host, this means they stay close to the skin and especially around the back of the neck and behind the ears. There are big blood vessels under the skin like hot water pipes and hair hanging down like a blanket keeps the heat in. When you lift the hair you can sometimes see a soft pink blush on the skin and little white eggs in the hair itself. You should check all around the head as some lice will stray further around the head.
