Tiny white lice eggs attached to body hair are known as nits. They are the eggs laid by lice, which are parasitic insects that feed on human blood. Nits are typically oval-shaped and can be found close to the scalp or hair follicles, making them difficult to remove. If left untreated, they can hatch into adult lice, leading to further infestation.
