Yes, but probs not for the reason you think!
Stella gets asked this question a lot. In fact, whenever she posts on this topic a lot of her followers forward it to their friends.
That’s probably because it’s a question parents think about and Stella’s answer gives them a sense of control. (Which is what Stella’s all about so that makes her happy. 😁)
Health Department advice is to wash only your pillow cases and that is a very cautious approach because...
Lice can only live on the human scalp. They can’t survive on a non-scalp surface. They require scalp to eat, and to cozily raise their babies. They have no interest in your family's bedding.
However (here comes Stella’s fine print!), a Head Lice infestation can make you feel out of control. 🌪️
An easy way to regain some control is to strip the sheets and pillows and replace all linen. 🛌
It’s also something that older children can help with.
Stella’s not trying to make any more work for anyone, but who doesn’t love clean sheets? 🤷♀️
