lice
There are many parasites that attack the human body, including lice, which are classified as insects that live in the scalp of human hair and in other places such as the pubic area and under the armpits, due to the appropriate environment in those areas for lice, as abundant hair and high humidity are available, in addition to food represented by the absorption of small amounts of the blood.
Lice are distinguished by their rapid spread in the scalp of human hair. When mating occurs between a male and a female, the female lays large numbers of eggs that hatch after seven days. After another seven days have passed, the nits are able to mate and lay new eggs in huge numbers.

- Using hair shampoo for killing lice and nits, and many products are available from it, most of which give the same result if used continuously and for at least two weeks.
- Using a hair comb for lice and nits, which is distinguished by its fine and close teeth. The comb is used after wetting the hair well, and a piece of cloth must be placed under the hair during combing, in order to get rid of this piece after completion to ensure that lice and nits are not transmitted to anyone else.
