What are head lice? The United States CDC reports: âHead Lice are found worldwide. In the United States, infestation with head lice is most common among pre-school children attending child care, elementary schoolchildren, and the household members of infested children.
Occasionally, head lice may be acquired from contact with clothing (such as hats, scarves, and coats) or other personal items (such as brushes or towels) that belong to an infested person. Preschool and elementary-age children (ages 3-11) and their families are infested most often.he cause of head lice is an infestation with a parasitic insect known as Pediculus humanus capitis. This parasite is more commonly known as head lice -- so both the condition and the parasite that causes it go by the same name. A head louse (head lice is plural) is a small, wingless insect.
