    Did you check yourself? If nits are present the child shouldn't be there! My daughter had it once and she got it from just lying on the same carpet as an infested friend. It's a pain to get rid of. They do look like dandruff (grayish white and small like a grain of sand) but are hard to move off of a strand of hair. They can still be transmitted after treatment if any at all are left.
    If he does have them wash everything you can in HOT water and put stuffies in a airtight bag for 2 weeks so the lice can't survive. As a precaution I'd wash hair with shampoo mixed with tea tree oil as it's a natural anti-lice treatment.
