The Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation issued Order No. 342 on November 26, 1998. The goal is to stop the spread of head lice and infectious diseases carried by lice.

The female lays 4 eggs per day. The louse lives up to 38 days and is sensitive to temperature. Outside the host's body, it dies within 1 day. At temperatures below 20 °C, egg laying stops and larval development stops.

Typhus or rickettsiosis is a severe infectious disease in which destructive changes in blood vessels and the development of generalized thrombovasculitis occur. Symptoms of this disease are:

  • fever and temperature;
  • intoxication of the body;
  • roseola-petechial rash.

The first 2 species are carriers of infectious agents such as typhus, relapsing fever, and Volyn fever. The greatest danger in the event of epidemics are body lice, which, after consuming the blood of a patient, can become carriers within 5-7 days and transmit the infection to healthy people.

Treatment algorithm for pediculosis:

  1. Prepare a solution to kill parasites in accordance with the instructions.

  7. Rinse your hair again with warm water and dry with a towel.
