Eighty-two nit combs made from wood and ivory have been uncovered, with narrow prongs to remove nits (which are the eggs of lice) and fleas from hair and beards. A couple even had nits still attached!

To be safe, we’d also need to wash all the hats in the world and possibly all of our clothes, as these can harbor nits too. Pillow cases as well, if we’re really serious about this.
