Question 1 of 5
A school nurse conducting a screening for pediculosis capitis identifies several children who require treatment. Which of the following instructions should the nurse give the children's parents?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Seal non-washable items in airtight plastic bags. This is because lice can survive for up to 48 hours away from the human host. By sealing non-washable items in airtight bags for at least 2 days, any lice on the items will die due to lack of oxygen.
Choice B is incorrect as spraying insecticide on countertops and sinks is unnecessary and may be harmful to children.
Choice C is incorrect as lice are species-specific and do not infest pets.
Choice D is incorrect as soaking combs and hairbrushes in alcohol may not effectively kill lice eggs.
