Lice Spray
Lice, best way to get rid of them?

My daughters scalp now is burning from the lice spray from the chemist? Is there anyway I can make her scalp recover quickly, and how do I keep the lice away for good?

I am so sorry to hear about your daughter. I am a big advocate for natural head lice remedies as those chemical ones are simply dangerous, as you have unfortunately found out. The stupid thing is they are not even effective as head lice have become immune to them.

Next time try a natural remedy. Luckily there are quite a few available that readily kill head lice.

Suffocation is an effective method where oil based products (i.e.: conditioner) are used to block the breathing holes and kill the live lice. The real trick though is to find natural products that will kill both the live lice and their eggs in one fast effective treatment.

Remedies containing Neem Oil are known to be highly effective as Neem interrupts the growth and reproduction of the head louse. Neem’s insecticidal properties are widely recognized now and the oil is commonly available at your local health food store.

Feel free to check out the articles at the following site for more advice.

Good luck.

Treatment for Head Lice

Head lice (Pediculus capitis) are small parasitic insects exquisitely adapted to living mainly on the scalp and neck hairs of their human host. Head lice are tiny insects that live on the scalp. They can be spread by close contact with other people. Lice are parasitic insects that can be found on people’s heads, bodies, and pubic area. Lice are most commonly spread by person-to-person contact. They live on people’s heads and feed on their blood. An adult is called a louse and is about the size of a sesame seed. The eggs, called nits, are even smaller – almost like a dandruff flake. Head lice can survive up to 30 days on a human. Their eggs can live for more than 2 weeks. Lice and nits are easiest to detect at the neckline and behind the ears.

Head lice can live up to 3 days off the scalp. Although the eggs can also survive for up to 3 days, they need a warm environment to develop. They are not likely to hatch at room temperature. Head lice causes intense itching, but does not lead to a serious medical problem. Infestation is marked by tiny red spots on the scalp. Lice may be visible in the hair behind the ears and at the nape of the neck as these are favourite spots for infestations. Children may have head lice for several weeks with no symptoms. Small, red bumps or sores from scratching. For some kids, the irritation is mild; for others, a more bothersome rash with crusting and oozing may develop. Treatment is recommended if even one egg is found. Lotions and shampoos containing permethrin are usually effective.

Medicated lice treatments can usually kill the lice and nits, but it may take a few days for the itching to stop. Never share hair brushes, combs, hair pieces, hats, bedding, towels, or clothing with someone who has head lice. wash the hair as normal using an ordinary shampoo,apply conditioner liberally to wet hair (this causes the lice to lose their grip on the hair). Don’t use more than one head lice medication at a time. Don’t use sprays or hire a pest control company to try to get rid of the lice, as they can be harmful. Do not use a creme rinse or combination shampoo/conditioner before using lice medicine. Do not re-wash hair for 1-2 days after treatment. Never use gasoline or kerosene. Metal combs with very fine teeth are stronger and more effective than plastic nit combs.

Head Lice Treatment Tips

1. Do not use medicated lotions or rinses.

2. Regular combing of hair using the bug-busting method can help with early detection.

3. Before applying treatment, remove all clothing from the waist up.

4. Don’t use a hair dryer on your child’s hair after applying any of the currently available scalp treatments.

5. Apply lice medicine, also called pediculicide , according to label instructions.

6. Nit combs, often found in lice medicine packages, should be used to comb nits and lice from the hair shaft.

Will Lice Spray Kill Fleas?

I have had an awful time trying to kill fleas in my home. My kids are getting more and more bites! I was wondering if lice spray would kill fleas. And if not, What Will! I would really appreciate any advice.

No but it will probably kill your cats…why dont you go and buy a flea bomb? you need to buy one that not only kills fleas but kills flea eggs as well…and make sure you and the animals and kids leave the house for at least 4 hours and clean up well before everyone re-enters the house

Queensryche’s follow-up to the double-platinum Empire is something of an acquired taste, but it’s well worth the effort. There’s considerable variety here; the heavy progressive-rock of “I Am I” and the ballad “Bridge” were hit singles, but there’s also the funk-inflected “Disconnected”, the edgy, spooky “Lady Jane”, and the piano-and-vocals “Someone Else?”. The title track is probably the stronge…
