How does the small needle lice comb effectively remove lice and their eggs?

Basic structure and design of a small needle lice comb
A small needle lice comb is a tool designed to remove lice and their eggs from the hair. It is usually composed of fine metal or plastic pins that are precisely arranged at even spacings to effectively penetrate the tangled parts of the hair to help remove lice and their eggs. The small needle lice comb has fine teeth and is designed with precision and strength, so it can easily reach deep into the hair without missing any.
Unlike ordinary combs, the small needle lice comb has long and dense needles to ensure that even tiny lice eggs and adults can be caught and removed. Its needle tips are specially designed to provide efficient lice removal without damaging the hair and scalp.

How a small needle lice comb works
The removal effect of a small needle lice comb mainly depends on its fine teeth and its ability to grab lice and eggs. Lice and lice eggs are usually attached to the roots of the hair, close to the scalp, which are usually difficult to clean. The small needle lice comb can easily pass through the hair through the fine teeth and effectively scrape these attachments.
For adult lice, which are large in size, the small needle lice comb can clamp them and remove them from the hair. For lice eggs, since lice eggs usually adhere to the roots of the hair and are very sticky, the fine teeth design of the small needle lice comb allows the comb teeth to carefully scrape these eggs without damaging the hair.

Process of removing lice and eggs
Combing order
When using a small needle lice comb, you usually start from the scalp and gradually comb towards the ends of the hair. This process requires meticulousness and patience, because lice and eggs usually hide at the roots of the hair. First, divide the hair into small bundles and comb them section by section, making sure that every hair is carefully combed by the comb teeth. This helps to improve combing efficiency and ensure that as many lice and eggs as possible are removed.
Fine tooth gaps
A key feature of the small needle lice comb is that the gaps between its teeth are very fine. Lice are small in size and difficult to remove effectively with ordinary combs, but the small needle lice comb can pass through these tiny gaps and tightly grasp the body of the lice to prevent them from escaping.
Improve the removal effect
To improve the removal effect, many small needle lice combs are also equipped with handles or comfortable grip designs, which are convenient for users to better control the strength. During the combing process, appropriate pressure and steady movements are very important. By gently pulling, the comb teeth can fit the hair and capture the lice and eggs attached to the hair.

Tips for cleaning and using small needle lice combs
Combing frequency
To ensure the effectiveness of lice removal, small needle lice combs usually need to be used when the hair is completely dry. Lice and eggs in wet hair are easier to remove by other methods, but when using small needle lice combs, wet hair may affect the combing effect. It is usually recommended to use the comb in the early morning or evening to avoid strong sunlight affecting vision.
Usage tips
When using a small needle lice comb, it is recommended to comb in small sections step by step. After combing a small section each time, you can use a paper towel or cloth to clean the lice and eggs on the comb teeth to avoid combing the lice that have been removed into the hair again when combing repeatedly.
Prevent the spread
Because lice have a strong reproductive ability, care should be taken to prevent lice from falling off the hair and spreading in the environment during the cleaning process. Therefore, during the cleaning process, use a special cleaning cloth or paper towel to promptly clean the lice and eggs on the comb teeth, and it is best to disinfect the cleaned tools.

Advantages of small needle lice combs
Non-chemical treatment
Compared with chemical insect repellents or drug treatments, small needle lice combs provide a non-toxic, non-irritating physical method of removing lice. This is very suitable for people with sensitive skin, especially children. In addition, there is no need to worry about the possible side effects of chemicals when using small needle lice combs to remove lice.
Reusable
The small needle lice comb has the advantage of being reusable and has a long service life. It does not require the consumption of additional drugs or chemicals, so it is economical and sustainable for both personal and family use.
Simple and convenient operation
The use of small needle lice combs does not rely on complicated operations. Lice and eggs can be removed by simply combing the hair. Its lightweight design allows users to clean anytime, anywhere without worrying about allergic reactions or usage restrictions of drugs.

Effect of combining with other treatments
Although the small needle lice comb is an efficient physical lice removal tool, in severe lice infestations, it may also need to be combined with other treatments. Usually, it is recommended to use medication to reduce the number of lice first, and then use a small needle lice comb for thorough cleaning. By combining medication and physical cleaning, lice and eggs can be removed more effectively and recurrence can be avoided.
