From these infested STUDENTS, 98.1% were female, 59.8% resided in urban area and 57.6% were studying in primary schools. Statistically significant relationships were found between head lice infestation, and factors such as sex, residency status and level of education of the STUDENTS (P<0.05).Conclusuion: This is the first time that an OUTBREAK of head lice infestation was reported in BAHAR city among STUDENTS.
