What is the life cycle of a lice?

The life cycle for Head lice is fairly simple -Egg -> Nymph -> AdultNits, or lice eggs, hatch in about a week. Baby lice or nymphs are about the size of a pinhead when they hatch, and quickly mature into adult lice in about a week. Adult lice can then live for about 30 days, with females laying up to 8 nits a day, repeating the cycle.Reproduced from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

How big can head lice get?

Well it depends. When a lice jumps onto your head, it lays eggs all through your head. They are tiny at first, but in at least 7 days they get bigger as the baby lice inside the egg grows. After 7 days, the nits, or "eggs" hatch. That will make the lice bugs tiny where you cannot even really see them.. after time the lice bugs grow bigger. More and more will lay eggs and continue to hatch if you don't treat them right away! I recommend RID or washing your hair in vinegar. It helped me, and I haven't had lice since then. I hope this helped.. :)


Why do lice look white on hair then when taken out look brown?

Head lice are parasites that live in the hair and scalp of humans. The egg sacs or nits are white or yellowish. They are firmly attached to the hair shaft. Nits hatch into nymphs which are immature adult head lice. The adult louse is about the size of a sesame seed. It has six legs since it is an insect and it is tan to greyish- white, but after it eats it looks brown. The nymph looks like a small louse in terms of color.
