LICE: The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) recommends that schools and child care facilities maintain an active educational campaign for parents and caregivers on the accurate identification and proper treatment of head lice to prevent head lice among children. Parents and caregivers play a critical role in the prevention and control of head lice as many schools and child care facilities may not have dedicated staff or adequate resources to routinely evaluate children for head lice.
If a child is found to have head lice, it is important to remain calm. Head lice are not a sign of poor hygiene or living in an unclean environment. Infestations are common among school-aged children, approximately 6 to 12 million infestations occur each year in the United States.
• Children are more likely to acquire head lice during sleepovers, play dates, and family gatherings, where head-to-head contact frequently occurs, than in the classroom.
• Conventional treatment products should not be used to prevent or “ward off” head lice in individuals who do not actively have head lice.
