As lice spend their whole life on the host they have developed adaptations which enable them to maintain close contact with the host. These adaptations are reflected in their size (0.5–8 mm), stout legs, and claws which are adapted to cling tightly to hair, fur and feathers, and that they are wingless and flattened.

Phthiraptera (Piojos)

Orden: Phthiraptera

Descripción: A medida que los piojos pasan toda su vida en el huésped, han desarrollado adaptaciones que les permiten mantener un contacto cercano con el huésped. Estas adaptaciones se reflejan en su tamaño (0,5–8 mm), patas robustas y garras que se adaptan para aferrarse fuertemente al cabello, a la piel y a las plumas, y que no tienen alas y están aplanadas.

Lice feed on skin (epidermal) debris, feather parts, sebaceous secretions and blood. A louse's color varies from pale beige to dark grey; however, if feeding on blood, it may become considerably darker.

A louse egg is commonly called a nit. Lice attach their eggs to their host's hair with specialized saliva which results in a bond that is very difficult to separate without specialized products. Living lice eggs tend to be pale white. Dead lice eggs are orangeish.
