I thought they jumped? When my daughter had them once at nursery, when combing her hair they seemed to jump.

The only thing I could get rid of them with was tea tree shampoo, conditioner and listerine mouthwash. They don't like mint apparently.

Seems strange and yes you smell like toothpaste for a while but at least it gets rid of them.

A good way to prevent nits is leave in condition and hairspray and of course if the hair is long enough always keep it tied back. My daughter has longish hair and always has her hair tied back for school with a little hairspray in. I don't like using hairspray on her, but its better than her coming back with nits, because some of the parents let their children go to school like that and can't be bothered doing anything about it.
