One of the most unpleasant symptoms caused by the presence of these creepy crawlers is, well, a sense of something crawling in our head. Younger people are especially prone to feeling something move around their scalp. The louse and their movement on top of our scalp and the surrounding area cause this feeling. As with the first symptom we mentioned, this sign often appears a few weeks after the initial infestation. This is because at first, the lice are stationary, and only begin movement afterward. If your child complains of a feeling of something on their head, he or she may have lice.
