Head Lice are small insects approximately 2mm to 4mm long and about 1mm wide. They have six legs with claws and are usually a light or dark brown colour. Nits (Head Lice eggs) are small and hard like a grain of salt and are yellow-white in colour. Nits are usually found on the hair very close to the scalp. Those found further than 1-1.5cm from the scalp are probably dead or hatched. Sometimes a person with Head Lice or Nits might feel itchy, but not always.
