[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Large lice can jump to another person. [/quote] This is not true. Lice don't "jump", climb, or fly or anything like that. THey are pretty fragile in that regard. Which is why one of the local lice remediation companies tells people "a louse on the floor is a dead louse." You literally need head to head contact (or sharing hats/brushes). So, even with live lice, you're unlikely to get it unless you are touching other peoples' heads (more likely in the younger grades). That's probably why "nits" are allowed.[/quote]
