When they are newly laid they are a creamy white, and stuck to a hair. They soon become a duller white, and may end up brownish if the hair is dirty. Dead eggs Or empty eggshells may be the same colour as live eggs, especially if the hair is frequently washed. But often dark eggs may be dead.
Don't rely on it though. If you find nits on your hair, apply a commercial insecticide, preferably a shampoo, and follow instructions carefully. If you do that you should be free of lice in a week or two and can be sure of staying free until the next infection.
Forget all the nonsense you here about how dangerous commercial louse treatments might be. Use them properly and they are safe as houses. Most amateurs ideas are both useless and dangerous.
