Head Lice & Worms

Head lice are common in children and aren't a sign of poor hygiene. Check everyone in the house with a detection comb and only treat people who have live lice. Threadworm treatment is usually given to everyone in the household at the same time, even if only one person has symptoms.

Some treatments aren't suitable for young children or during pregnancy, so check the label or ask us. Washing bedding and towels and keeping nails short helps stop threadworms spreading.
