1. 1除蝨、捉蝨子

    To delouse someone or something is to take lice off them — the tiny insects that live in hair, clothes, or animal fur — or similar pests. You delouse a child's hair, a blanket, a soldier's kit, or a dog. It is a practical, slightly official-sounding verb: nurses, vets, and the army use it. People also stretch it, a little jokingly, to mean “clean someone of pests or of something unwanted,” but the home meaning is still the insect. You cannot delouse a room of dust; that would just be cleaning.
