So how serious is it having lice? Having lice on your head leads to intense itching, then to scratching and can cause sores and secondary bacterial infections on the skin. These pests also pose a psychological problem, as their bites cause a tickling sensation and may result in anxiety, secondary infection and sleeplessness. To make thing worst, body lice can spread the following diseases: epidemic typhus, louse-borne relapsing fever, trench fever and vagabond’s disease ( when body lice infestation are long lasting, heavily bitten areas of the skin can become thickened and darkened). Getting rid of head lice can be done at home with the use of a nit comb, thorough body washing, and all clothing and bed linens should be washed in hot cycles.
