Does camphor oil kill lice and eggs?
I dont know about camphor oil. The only thing that i have found that works well is hair color. but after you color you would still need to remove the eggs. they will be dead but they hold on for dear life! Best thing i can offer is to put olive oil in the hair over night with a shower cap on, then next morning comb thru with a lice brush to remove the eggs and then wash hair with dish soap. If you have a really stubborn case, hair bleach is a definite.

Any object exposed to lice can get lice, in that lice can jump onto the object. However lice need to eat often and so they will not stay on an object which is not food to them. Same with fleas. Dog flea will bite you, but they will not live on you.
Adult Lice die quickly without food, so merely keeping the wig in a sealed plastic bag for a day should take care of any nervousness about lice on it.

Disinfecting the entire room with chemicals (of which might not be so good for kids) is a solution, but after a weekend of no kids there the room will have dead lice in it, but that is not dangerous.
It does not prevent the room from being "infected" with lice again though as some chemicals would for a period of time.
Why head lice are harmful and annoying?
The real damage that can occur while you suffer from head lice are not the bugs themselves. While they may be itchy and a pain to get rid of, they don't actually do much harm. The harmful effects of head lice come with the treatment you choose. Harsh chemicals sometimes do damage to the scalp. Use carefully and follow all instructions, including age appropriateness for children. Always follow the label and keep chemicals away from children when not in use. I prefer to use more organic methods such as mayonnaise and vinigar.
To get rid of lice use lice shampoo or there is a place called 'Hair Fairies' and they will get rid of your lice and have products that will too.
Also, you can buy LiceMD from any store that sells medicines.

Do flies carry lice from head to head?
There are many different species of lice that are species specific. Human lice only live on humans, but there are bird lice, dog lice, cattle lice, etc. Many lice even limit their habitat to a particular part of the body, like the pubic louse.
There have been reports of lice using Hippoboscidae flies, or louse flies to travel from one host (especially a dying host) to another (alive and well) host. The process of one species carrying another is call phoresy. These lice are mainly those of the suborder Ishnocera. Most lice in this suborder are bird lice, although some are mammalian lice. I have not seen any studies or reports of human head lice using phoresy to transfer to new hosts.
Rats and Lice caused great distress among the soldier. Many of men were deeply afraid of them and feared going to sleep. The lice caused itchy sores, which were most common around the neck, wrists and ankles. Lice also spread disease and caused serious, fatal illnesses like typhus.

The lice laid hundreds of eggs in clothes and it was an especially hard job for Scottish soldiers as many of them wore kilts. Lice nested and thrived in the seams and folds of the kilt. The only way to get rid of them was to use a candle to pop them away.
