SAMPLE LETTER TO PARENTS

Dear Parent/Guardian:

In checking

today, lice/nits were found in the

following areas

Head lice are easily spread from person to person. Head lice are not caused by

lack of cleanliness and they do not carry disease, but they can be difficult to

eliminate.

To prevent head lice from spreading to others, we ask you to act immediately.

Treat your child with a head lice product and remove all lice and eggs before

your child returns to school. If you have treated recently check the product

to see if and when you can re-treat or talk to your pharmacist about another

product. A second treatment is needed 7-10 days following the first treatment.

Check the health unit website, for more

information.

Please complete the section below and return it to the staff when your child

returns to child care.
