Does the little enclave where you live produce the pesticide resistant varieties?Head lice have been making the rounds ever since humans populated the earth, but they haven't been out of control until just lately.

It has. There's a whole boutique industry that's sprung up that gives one stop, guaranteed results.

Head lice, which can't jump or fly

I've read they can pole vault. I think it was stall #2 at an I-70 truck stop in Kansas.
