LICE. Not the best way to start an article, but forget about that.
Let's focus on them lice. Always been here, and probably always will.
I'm talking about one type of lice specifically: hair lice.
They are passed through many things, including bed sheets, TOILET SEATS
(Yup... remember that girl who kept scratching her head... and then she
went potty... and then you went potty... nope... that was me...), combs
(DUH!), and clothes.
Get this straight: NEVER feel ashamed if you get them. I got lice three
times, and had PRETTY clean hair.
I'm writing this article because I have about 1,000 students in my
school (small, I know) and every year they check EVERY student for nits
and lice.
What's the difference? Nits are lice eggs. Lice are... well... lice.
They look like the little anties that bite you, but a little smaller or
bigger (I forget now), and they're just like ticks.
Yup, suck the brain out of you, MWUAHAHAHAH! Ahem, they suck blood from
your scalp, and leave little scabs.
To kill them, put one on something flat (DON'T USE GLASS! I had an
accident with that), then use your nail and put pressure. You should
hear a crack. That's bones... okay, exoskeleton... and now it's dead.
Another way to kill them is to use special shampoos. Leave 'em in for
ten minutes or so, rinse it out, and keep the stuff out of your eyes.
How many treatments it takes depends on the kind of lice.
So, keep checking every so often. I'd say about every 3 or 4 months.
Looking for more tragedies and travesties,
