  • Place bedding (sheets, pillowcases, blankets) in the dryer (hot setting) for 30 minutes
  • vacuum floors, carpets, upholstery, car seats
  • If you cannot vacuum sofas, and upholstered furniture, simply cover them with a bed sheet for 48 hours

  • Heat kills lice and their eggs.
  • Without a human host the lice will die within 24 hours.
  • Once lice crawl off of a human host, they are doomed. They become weak and unable to reattach to the hair. They need a blood meal and the warmth of the scalp to survive.
