[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 599947, member: 11791"] Get a nit comb - it's finer than a fine-tooth comb. Put a dark sheet on the floor or on the ground outside (sheet, so you can wash it...) Then, comb through your hair [I]over the sheet[/I]. If it IS lice... you will see evidence on that sheet pretty quickly. It's pretty obvious if what you see is just dandruff... ;) No point in going through the hassle of treatment if it isn't lice - and using it when you don't need to can make it less effective next time. No need to throw out combs and such - put in deep freeze for a week (they say 48 hours, but... I prefer a week). It "freeze-dries" any attached problems. Then wash (after thawing). And then... put Poppy through the 'comb-out over sheet' test too... [/QUOTE]
