My neice came to my daughters bday party and we found out she had headlice. My whole family was there. She is just 2 years old and was hugging on everyone. We all checked our hair and treated it but still didn't find any bugs.
If we didn't find any bugs and washed are clothes immediately are we in the clear?
And can the nits transfer from people to people or is it just the lice?
thanksHead lice ? please? Family came in contact with it?????r we in the clear?

Lice are highly contagious and can spread quickly from person to person, especially in group settings (schools, childcare centers, slumber parties, sports activities, and camps).
Though they can't fly or jump, these tiny parasites have specially adapted claws that allow them to crawl and cling firmly to hair. They spread mainly through head-to-head contact, but sharing clothing, bed linens, combs, brushes, and hats can also help pass them along. Kids are most prone to catching lice because they tend to have close physical contact with each other and often share personal items.
