Home Remedy Louse Treatment:Get Rid of Lice For Good!

Home Remedy Louse Treatment:Get Rid of Lice For Good!
For many years, long before commercial products were even
thought of, home remedy louse treatment has been the answer
to getting rid of the pesky, but harmless, critters once
and for all. Lice are incredibly easy to prevent. They
easily pass from one person to the next, but are very
difficult to effectively treat.

Maintaining good hygiene, which includes not sharing
personal items such as brushes and hats, and teaching
children about the possibility of getting lice is important
to prevent them from ever disrupting your household. The
following home remedy louse treatment methods use simple
items that are found in any general store, or probably
right in your very own pantry or refrigerator.

Vinegar: Vinegar mixed with baby oil or any type of mineral
oil in equal amounts should be applied to thoroughly
saturate the scalp and hair. The mixture should be left in
place for one hour, keeping the head covered with a shower
cap, before shampooing normally.

Mayonnaise: Massage mayonnaise all over the scalp,
saturating every strand, being sure to cover all of the
roots as well. Leave on for an hour before thoroughly
rinsing and shampooing.

Petroleum jelly: Much like mayonnaise, petroleum jelly is
difficult to remove from the hair, but useful for
suffocating lice, a messy method of lice removal but one
that is effective. It may take numerous washings to
completely clean the hair. Rubbing flour into the scalp
prior to shampooing helps to absorb some of the jelly.

Limes: Lime juice mixed with an equal amount of garlic
paste can be applied to the scalp and left on for half an
hour before washing. Ground almonds, about ten or so, mixed
into a few teaspoons of lime juice may also be used,
leaving on the hair for half an hour before shampooing.

Herbal oils: There is many a home remedy louse treatment
that involves the use of herbal oils, which are very gentle
and easy on the scalp. Some of the oils most commonly used
include rosemary, geranium, coconut, eucalyptus, tea tree,
lavender, lemon, and even vegetable and baby oils.

One is not used alone, but rather in a mixture of several,
such as three tablespoons of olive oil, a teaspoon of tea
tree oil and another teaspoon of eucalyptus oil mixed into
regular shampoo. The concoction should be left on the hair
for at least half an hour while wearing a tight-fitting
shower cap.

Shaving cream: Apply the foam type of shaving cream all
over the scalp and hair for about half an hour to allow the
chemicals in the cream time to kill the lice and their
nits. This method may dry out the hair and strip it of some
of its protective oils, so be sure to condition the hair
thoroughly after treatment.

Beer: Use beer mixed with basil leaves and ten cloves,
grinding them all together into a thick paste, then
applying to the scalp and hair. Leave on for half an hour
to an hour before rinsing and washing.

Rubbing alcohol: Soak everyone's combs, brushes, barrettes,
hair bands and headbands in rubbing alcohol for at least an
hour. Very hot water can also be used, or items can simply
be thrown away and replaced.
