PS Bought myself a range of nit and head louse treatments and am doing a different one everyday plus washing everything I’ve been in contact with everyday. I can’t bear the thought of giving them to him…

Oh, bless you! All I can say is that from experience in school (we were lucky – yes, we had nits at times, but managed to get on top of them pretty quickly by just wet-combing with a nit comb) if they keep coming back, there’s a source somewhere that you’re coming into regular contact with. In our case, a girl in the class who…shall we say that mum wasn’t particularly attentive and refused to take action, even though we could see the blasted lice crawling through her hair. *shudders*
And the source may not be hair, either. I remember being told years ago (when we still had nit nurses) that a school had a really bad problem, and lots of kids were constantly affected. In the end they checked the teachers’ hair – nothing.
They found the little beasts in a male teacher’s beard…
Hope you manage to get clear xx
Squidge – noooooo. Not in a beard. I can’t bear it!
Jane – hope your sterling efforts keep the blighters at bay.
My Dad hasn’t started scratching yet!
An excellent point about the source, Squidge … but a beard? Ugh!!!
I know… *shudders again*
