Why Lice Are So Hard To Kill

- Lice can be hard to get rid of. In fact, head lice are now resistant to many over-the-counter treatments. Turns out, lice are a problem humans have been itching to fix for over 7 million years. Lice are small, tricky to spot, and can even hold their breath for eight hours, so they’ll be fine in the shower or in a pool. They’ve also developed resistance to many of our common treatments. In the last decade, experts have developed new weapons of attack, but we still haven’t managed to eradicate them altogether.
Following is a transcript of the video:
You might not have known this, but ancient Egypt was an itchy place to live. Lice were rampant. Cleopatra, for example, was buried with solid gold lice combs, while other Egyptians would shave their entire bodies to try and get rid of the parasites. So, it’s a problem we’ve had for a while, and probably won’t be solved anytime soon.
Humans and lice have been living together for about 7 million years when our ancestors split from chimps, and we’ve been itching to get rid of them ever since. There are 532 species of lice out there, but let’s take a look at the most common type that plagues humans: Head lice (Pediculus humanus capitis).
For starters, they have six legs, and each one has a tiny hook at the end that helps them climb from one head to another, latch onto your hair, and quickly crawl down to your scalp, where they’ll feast on your blood several times a day. And once they’ve made themselves comfortable, lice are tricky to spot.
Adult lice, for example, are about as large as a sesame seed, while baby lice, or nymphs, are a fraction that size. Lice are well camouflaged too, matching the color of the hair around them. Not to mention, your scalp is a perfect breeding ground. In one day, a female louse can lay up to eight eggs. Those eggs only take about a week to hatch, and once they’re 10 days old, they’ll start laying eggs of their own. While it’s rare to find more than 20 live lice on any head, there could be dozens, or even, hundreds of dead bodies lingering on your scalp. Feeling itchy yet?
Perhaps even worse is that they’re a pain to get rid of.
Lice can hold their breath for eight hours, so they’ll be fine when you take a shower or go for a swim. They’re also notorious for developing resistance to insecticides. During WWII, for example, militaries dusted millions of Europeans with DDT to control lice-borne typhus, and thanks to our overuse of it, lice grew a resistance to the poison. Even today, we’re seeing the repercussion from it. Many over-the-counter shampoos and lotions use similar killing mechanisms to DDT, which has made it easier for lice, in some place, to grow resistant to these treatments as well.
But scientists are striking back. In the last decade, experts have developed new weapons of attack for when initial over-the-counter treatments don’t work. Like prescription ivermectin lotion, which paralyzes lice by disrupting their nervous systems.
And of course, shaving your head is a cheap and surefire bet, but let’s face it, most of us probably can’t pull off that look.

😜 just try it
Ive had Lice twice in my life: one in primary school and 1 in university.
The first time I asked my mom over and over to please check my hair, which she didnt, and everyone in my home got it. It was a pain then to get rid of them.
The second time I felt the itch, I checked my own hair, blindly with my nails until I got something moving, then went straight for the pharmacy, bought a medical shampoo and got rid of it in less than a week...
Morale of the story: if your kid asks to look into his/her scalp, just do it.
Which shampoo
my mom made me soak my hair with baby oil for 2 hours( with a shower cap)to suffocate the bugs and it worked really well
In my case its opposite I dont want my head checked but she will do it over and over(sry for bad english tho)
Can you mention the shampoo name please
Can you pls tell tge name of shampoo I've literally same issue and everyone is blaming it on me and i just can't get rid of these little monsters all by myself even I've got a neck pain because of continuously combing my long hair and tgeir volume is another issue btw i love my long and silky hair but this issue had me screaming helplessly my mom don't even allow me to cut my hair maybe I'll get rid of it by cutting my hairs short I'm in special depression just bcz of this 😫

As a kid I got lice so many times, all the way up to grade six i got them at least once a year with no idea why or how. My mother said it's because I didn't comb my hair enough, being a mixed kid and not knowing quite well what to do with my hair, I definitely shirked. Eventually she blamed me for getting lice, and would get so mad at me for getting them time and time again. Each time I got them my hair would be cut really short... I hated it because I'd get bullied for having short hair. Eventually she threatened that if she saw one more bug on my head she'd shave it. Enter me in the sixth grade at school trying to ignore the itching and make sure no one stood directly behind me for too long in case they'd see. Combing my lice out in the shower with conditioner treatments etc and just praying they'd go away until they did. Horrible memories. Parents, please remember that lice go to clean hair, check your kid's heads regularly, and don't take out the frustration of getting them on your kids... Don't make the experience traumatic for them.
I needed to hear this. I’ve been so angry this whole week because my daughter has head lice , I’m sorry your mommy did that to you , I now know I really shouldn’t blame her ..she has beautiful soft clean hair and I just need to be calm and patient. She got sent home today from school because they found 2 ..I’m upset but your right it’s not my babies fault it’s the blood sucking parasites😒.
@@valeriemoreno5836 this has made my week, you're a great mom for not blaming her, i hope they go away quick, with treatments these days being so advanced they should. Lots of love, be strong!

SCRATCH SCRATCH SCRATCH 💅🩸
This! My daughter just got lice and I told her it’s not her fault that she got them, it was passed down from one of her friends that have them, and she hangs out with her. I think every parent goes thru this and instead of getting upset just teach your kids good hygiene, and talk to them about sharing and getting to close in contact with kids ect. We made the process fun and she was excited when we found the lice she’s only 7 lol 😂
@@valeriemoreno5836jesus christ why did you need to read a random youtube comment to realise you shouldn't be blaming your child for getting lice?
I used to be infested with them as a kid. I had really thick, black hair and lice loved the taste of my blood. I was constantly put in the lice chair with my mum scraping the hell out of my head with harsh chemicals, and she could never fully get rid of them. Within weeks, I would be right back to square one.
One day after I turned 13, I decided I had enough. I sat in the bathtub ALL NIGHT with my comb and simple conditioner and scraped and scraped and scraped until every single one of those tiny buggers were gone. It was about 5 am by the time I was done. My back was killing me, and my neck was on the verge of snapping. But I did it. They were all gone.
I'm 31 now. They have never come back since.
Nah mate, baldness is just human evolution against lice.
Bald people are the new humans
so you just lathered your hair in conditioner then just combed it with a nit/lice comb for hours? I got lice today cause my younger sis got it from school and it went to me :((
@juliafernandez4990 Yes.
Just normal conditioner and a normal comb to smooth the hair, then apply a metal nit comb and just keep going until you see no more eggs or lice. It may take a long time but it works
Just use vinegar? Other people comments say oil, but i dont like it. While vinegar smells strongly and you are fucked if a drop slides to your eyes (ouch!!) , at least noone would know you used it after a shower with normal shampoo
Should have just cut off your hair. That's what my mom did to me. Gone right away. My mom didn't know about the shampoo at the time so we never tried it 😅
Lice, the only thing attracted to me
and bed bugs too.

Oh my gosh...... I had lice when I was 7 and it took me up until I was 13 to get rid of them. We tried every treatment, combed my hair for hours, bleached my hair, I stopped washing my hair for awhile to see if they would leave since my hair was always really clean and they like that. Nothing ever worked. Then I moved out of that house and we TOOK NOTHING WITH US THAT WAS MADE OF CLOTH. We got new clothes, new blankets, new furniture, new everything...... One last treatment. And they finally left. Haven't had them since. But if you have them and they keep coming back, your furniture and carpets are the problem.
Had them for 11 years. I'm 13 and I still haven't gotten rid of them.
@@redbloodclotShave head then just use wig.
I know this is an old comment, but wouldn't just leaving the home like on a vacation for a weekend have killed the lice since they could not feed?
@@paulcarlin5181well, obviously they pour blood on all their clothes once a day to feed the lice. They want the lice gone but not starve them, they're not monsters.
Unfortunately my family’s really poor and we live in a shitty apartment with carpet that’s really old , we don’t plan on moving so I feel hopeless , I’ve had lice ( at least I’m pretty sure I still do , I don’t check anymore ) since I was a kid I’m 19 now I don’t know what to do it’s embarrassing and annoying
Tbh, picking lice was daily routine in my place when I was child and that was fun. That satisfying feeling when you get a lice and kill it through the nails of thumb was indescribable lol.
Sameee
Same my mom would do that and the sound it’d make when the lice died was so satisfying

I've suffered with lice for years as a kid. Tried everything: medical shampoos, lice combs, blood poisoning pills, vinegar. Once I used s medical shampoo but it gave me allergy. My whole face started to swell and burn and I ran to the hospital to take anti-allergy meds... Luckily, I got rid of them after that incident lmao.
oh damn
wouldnt it just be more ez to cut the hair all out?
My son and I both got lice when he was in middle school. I got rid of mine using mouthwash. I saturated my hair with it, put on a shower cap, left it for an hour, washed thoroughly, and repeated a week later and they were gone. For my son, I just gave him a thorough combing with a nit comb every day until I had removed them all.
Y’all remember when there was head lice checks at school?💀 there’s always that one kid that disappears after the check ..
We never had those in my country
grazia weston i had those when i was in the lower grades like Kindergarten to 4th grade until that they never did them anymore
I remember those. I never ever shared hair clips, combs or hairties ever and people made fun of me a bit. Joke was on them cuz 5 or 6 of them ended up with lice.
man THAT GIRL GAVE ME FREAKIN LICE
yeah

YES
I have lice and i tried it and ITS TRUE
😂😂
I remember like 6 or 7 years ago I got a ad in the mail for free lice removal so i went (by that time i had lice for like 7 months) and they used poisons and hot combs and they used lots of heat so i sometimes felt like my scalp was going to burned or something. After that day i have not had lice for the like the past 7 years and it was a relief.
When I was 8 years old, there was a lice infestation at our elementary school. Eventually, I got them too. My mother tried a couple of treatments, including shampoos. They didn't work. One day she had enough of watching me suffer, so she just shaved my head bald. The way I looked afterwards was incredibly funny to me. There's still pictures left from back then.

I have incredibly thick hair which is also curly. I got lice when I was 11. They stayed for a YEAR. no matter how much treatment or combing, they always came back. My mom eventually pulled an all nighter coming every single one of my strands. I’ve never gotten them again since.
One time I had lice but I was too embarrassed to tell my parents, so I just slathered my whole scalp with thick hair curling cream and any time I felt any sort of itchiness I flipped on even more and then the next day I washed my hair and I was completely lice free. I still can’t believe it actually worked.
just curling cream?

i got lice a lot in 5-6th grade and after then i thought they were PERMANENTLY gone
and, here i am, literally years later with them again because my sister also in 6th grade got them from her friend and then didnt tell anyone for a few weeks and they got literally everywhere and basically everyone in my household has had them at this point. i am in agony.
the last ever time i had them, i was way too scared to tell my mom so what i did was drown my hair in water for like half an hour and then just pull them all out on my own and it somehow worked, eventually they were just all gone and didnt come back... until now apparently. my mom is gonna buy me treatment later today but for now i hate everything
Omfg same i didnt have lice for 4 yrs and now that face to face classes are back i got them again 😭😭
My little half-sister goes over to her mother's house all the time, and she plays with her cousins and brings their lice with her to our house. I actually can't stand how much I get lice, just because my little-sister's mother and her cousin's mother can't just treat their own children.

I had lice as a child with my 3 other siblings so my mom went crazy and was pretty harsh to us about as if it was our fault and we got it because we were dirty, i’m 31 now and it still hurts remembering it esp since it took what felt like 4ever to get rid of it all.. be nice to your children if they get lice.. don’t make them feel like it’s their fault or they’re dirty

Thanks, great video, put together perfectly for little people to understand 👍🏽
I had got lice from someone in January this year. I didn't know it, until my head began itching more and more, until it was almost unbearable. Finally my husband decided to check my hair and he found these parasites. A few days later his head strated to itch too. It took more than a month to get rid of them. I was almost ready to shave my long hair, because it took us hours which were painful to comb lice out after using special shampoos.

Make a hair mask with basil leaves, some peppermint leaves chickpea flour or oats flour, curd and coconut oil. Apply on hair and keep for one hour max. Wash it all off into a bucket, you will definitely see dead lice. After bath, apply a little bit of Vicks vapour rub on the centre of your head (soft spot). Prevents you from getting a cold.
I had lice for like 8 years and i taught my self how to pick them one by one on my hair just by feeling. I became an expert at it that the lice decreased in my hair. They were gone finally after I dyed my hair..
I just grab them and pop them
I know I’m very skilled, I’ve been playing that game for 5 years.
Zalera when i had lice when i was little i would do the same thing and it makes me cringe!! i would literally pull eggs and lice out of my hair and pop them

I literally was thinking how I would go about this
Some Lice can hold their breath for 24 hours. You cannot drown them, but they do go dormant for an hour after ten minutes of water submersion. This makes the comb far more effective at pulling them out.
do we have to comb while the hair is wet?
My mom dyed my hair once when I had lice, it seemed to have done the trick. I wouldn't use that idea if it was reoccurring though..

some traditional treatment say coconut oil can loosen the glue of the eggs so it less sticky to your hair and will fall off when you take shower. it takes long time, but it is better than cutting your hair off.
Now it has been easily possible to get rid of both lice and eggs with a day using "Medilice". It will be easily available in a medical store and costs only 35-40 Indian rupees..
How to get rid of lice overnight: Comb hair with metal comb then drench your hair in tea tree oil with a bag covering your hair overnight
You should submit this to every scientist working on ways to get rid of them
i did that when i had lice and it does work
What worked for me was to iron ny hair more often and comb it every day lok
snatched same!
Kristen Tsui I’ve heard that could work
What my mom uses is, tea tree oil and mix it with conditioner, then put it on our hair with either a bag or plastic cap around our head and leave it on for about an hour to kill the lice. It’s works btw. When u take a shower sometimes you could feel the lice fell or when u get out of the shower a dead lice is somewhere on your body. Js lol. Then my mom also comb our hair to get rid of lice. She does that for like a month or two until our hair is better and no more lice. (Doesn’t mean it’s completely gone but we check once every two month) 👍
I've had live before and The worst thing was the failed treatment. It gave me a rash all down my neck and back and it didn't even work. We ended up just straightening our hair a lit for a couple weeks to fry the lice and picked through it with a lice comb. We only needed to get a lot of real lice the first time. The next 2 or 3 times we were only getting eggs. After all the eggs were gone, we stopped that method and started putting tea tree oil products in our hair. We haven't had lice sense

Tip: If you have lice, shower your hair with vinegar or tea tree oil, it causes them to become slippery and they come out easier. I had lice for years from a headphone set in the computer lab at my old elementary school. I finally got rid of them by using a hair straightener, it causes them to essentially pop as they're burned to death.
Dang

If you get itchy. You need to meet a barber and let them cut your hair.
You only felt itchy when your hair is densely.
I have to used A soap instead of using Dandruff or Lice Shampoo. Cause this can't rid of the Nits stick in your hair.
Water makes up over 80% of the shampoo.
Otherwise, A Soap only hold 20-35% water.
I prefer soap to shampoo
@@shetheyithe8894 shampoo might be the cause of itching please reduce it to 3 x a week
I remember when I had lice because of the girl in my class And so Quickly they were increasing my sister and mother tried so hard to get them out but they didn't then i Went to the doctor and she recommended me that cream called " Elice"(i still remember this name)And i was completely fine in just one day after that I have so much respect for that doctor
"lice is hard to kill"
My mom: squeez the lice using only thumb and index finger
Hopefully the devs are gonna nerf the lice in the next balance update
OMG IM DYING.LOL
Tierzoo reference?
Overwatch reference
@cinar eren Just like TF2 it's mostly the community that does updates.
They will probably nerf humans because we are the strongest rn and the animals are complaining

When i was four, my dads brother shaved my head without my parents permission. My mom tried to do that when i was in 4 fourth grade as well… however she said this in front of the school nurse and said that was abuse and she can call cps on my mom. My mom was pissed but she also never cleaned my hair fully!!! So i was stuck with lice from age 4 to age 19!!! My sisters and i got rid of the one day by pulling our money together and washing everything in the house while my parents were at work. I always thought i would live the rest of my life with them. I am 30 now and work with kids. I get scared imma get lice again. 😢
When you feel an itching on your body while watching this.........
Me: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHHHHHH IM GONNA DIE
Yep I'm feeling itchy
Nah that just means you got covid
While reading this comment I just got an itch
Yes I feel itchy on my body everyday but there are no life in my hair so I slap the area so no life comes
Whenever I had it when I was younger my mom poured mouthwash in my hair and they died instantly
thanks for the advice
I heard that in the olden times in my country, the teachers use gasoline to kill the lice but apparently, it's quite dangerous to use that
Was your hair alright???
Thanks
Arfah Bari oh yeah my hair was fine I washed it out with shampoo when we found all the traces of lice was gone. I was back to normal after my shower and combing my hair. it’s safe
I had lice a while ago, we used every treatment and they just wouldn’t die. I had to shave my head, some girl had it and I don’t know how on earth she got rid of them.
Bald or buzz cut?
Baldi And Calliou Be Flexing With Their Lice - Free Head
Use conditioner and comb it out lol, it works well.
Nah lmao
bruh my hair gets curly so quick though
Nah mayonnaise
@@dv4365 comb the hair, put tea tree oil in your hair and wash it out. I did this sass six years ago never had them since then. I do recommend continuing with the tea tree oil for a while since they hate the stuff hope this helped
@@iwillpeeyourpants3057 thanks😭
Lice:"Mmm im camoflaged...."
Bald headed:"Im about to end this man's whole carrier."
Keep ur head clean.. That's the most effective way I think. I oil and and shampoo (mild) my hair every alternative days. So there will be no more buildups or deadbodies . Also comb every night before going to sleep.
So that's why Jeff Bezos goes bald. He was afraid of LICE !
They Can Hold their Breaths for 8 Hours Damn I Wish I Had that Ability 😂
I remember having lice in elementary school, what worked in the end was a jumbo bottle of cheap conditioner and using a lice comb every day for two weeks on wet hair with a generous amount of conditioner slathered on it. The conditioner made it to slippery for the adults to hang on and the 2 weeks got rid of the adults before they got a chance to lay eggs. Nothing else got rid of them.
*cries*
Me too
I had lice when I was 14 and I will never forget how horrifying that was 😧😐
**when lice is stronger then you**
@@fijay7550 this was from a year ago?
@@fijay7550 yep
What my mom did was put some rubbing alcohol in my hair to make the lice “dizzy “ (her words) use a lice combs and just comb for and 1 hour and when they were on the comb she wiped them on a paper towel and (sorry but this is a bit gross) crush them with the top of her finger nail but I promise you she was very hygienic she hated them so much that she did all this which I really appreciated thx mom
Did u get rid of it but doing this
My mom used a clothing iron on my hair owo
My mom did that too but my mom picked them one by one with bare hands and crush them and she even pulled out the head lice eggs
Awwww... Moms are the best... ❤️
The intense combing is the secret, not the alcohol
I thank the video editors for how this is all animation and not a single photo of the lice or lice-infected body is shown. That keeps me calm.
*video: Lice can hold there breath for 8 hours.*
*me: goes for a swim for 8 hours*
Hello. I want to make a video. Can I use your clips for this?
"I had lice before...............and please trust me............"
IT WASN"T FUN!
sorry if this makes you gross but I figured out by a friend gave it to me and there were crawling all over my hairbursh I was crying and it freaked me out and mom said to put tea tree oil in for now and then she ran to the store and bought some lice conditoner but the next day there were STILL A TON OF EGGS so my mom siad this that it was the last straw! so she went to my entire head and got by sections each and every LIce and egg out because she new they were all dead even the eggs so she wasn't scared to touch them! I had to thank my mom so much for getting rid of my Lice problom! I love her so much and I'm so grateful for what she did and now I never had lice since! and my head felt really light and free and it can breath! so theres my story :3 and belive me make sure to bring a pillow when having a sleepover! theres my advice! oh and I'm no longer friends with her because she is a bully to me now and I hate her so much! well thanks! bye!!!
Yeah, this is what my mom did as well. It also helped that I obsessively used the steel comb for at least 5 days after she said I was lice free.
I have very long hair and one time i had so much lice in my head that when I crouched to pick up something some life fell of my head
@@gravynavy516 oh my! that's horrible

I Have Unlimited Lives!
*Uses Lice Lotion*
I Regret That.
I used to had lice in my hair lots of nits too. But when I did hair rebonding/coloring, eventually they left my hair until their gone. Of course lice shampoo also helps.
