Pesticide Outlook, 2001
Head lice can only be diagnosed by finding live lice, as eggs take 7 days to hatch and may appear viable for weeks after death of the egg. Infestation may be more likely in school children, with risks increased in children with more siblings, longer hair, and of lower socioeconomic group.We conducted a systematic review and aimed to answer the ...

Unravelling the evolution of the head lice and body lice of humans
Parasitology Research, 2005Recent studies of mitochondrial genes of the head and body lice of humans indicate that present-day lice comprise two lineages that diverged before the evolution of modern humans. To test if this was a locus-specific phenomenon, we studied two nuclear genes, elongation factor-1alpha (EF-1alpha) and small subunit ribosomal RNA (ssu rRNA).

Lice are a menace to humans, pets, and livestock, not only because of their blood-feeding or chewing habits, but also because of their ability to transmit pathogens. The order “ Phthiraptera ” is divided into two main taxonomic groups: the Anoplura (sucking lice) and Mallophaga (chewing or biting lice). The blood-feeding anoplura are more important
