Get Expert Lice Treatment in Atlanta

The first step in treating a head lice infestation is diagnosis. If your child is complaining of an itchy scalp or neck, or if you see small red sores on the scalp, it’s important to perform a thorough examination of his or her head. You are looking for adult head lice or their eggs, also called nits. Finding adult head lice can be difficult as they can move quickly through your hair to avoid detection. Adult lice are grayish white and about the size of a grain of rice. They have 6 legs and no wings. Nits are tiny yellowish eggs attached to a hair shaft.
