Summer Camp Survival Guide: How to Prevent Head Lice

How to prevent head lice Whether you’re sending a child off to an overnight camp or a neighborhood sleepover, give them a few pointers to prevent getting lice in the first place.

Avoid sharing:

• towels

• combs and brushes

• hair clips and accessories

• hats and bike helmets

• headsets and earbuds

Talk to your kids about avoiding direct head-to-head contact or storing items they wear close to their head, such as hats or scarves, in closets where other kids keep their belongings.

If your child shows signs of head lice upon returning home, give us a call for a head check or treatment ASAP. We recommend all family members are checked as well.
