Oh, and I  forgot to mention - lice DO prefer clean heads. That doesn't mean a dirty head is immune, although a kid with bad cradle cap probably is immune. But back when easy child was in school and difficult child 1 was in child care (and we were dealing with our first big dose) there was a news report that nits had been found in the child care centre where Princes William and Harry was attending. Almost exclusively, that centre was used by the gentry of Britain and the reporters were saying, "wealth and position are no barrier - indeed, the clean head is at more risk, since there is nothing in the way of the scalp, for the louse." Nothing was said about WHICH landed gentry had lousy kids, but there was a lot of speculation.
