CHEAP WAY TO GET RID OF HEAD LICE THAT DOCTORS WON’T TELL YOU

Most parents are scared of head lice and most of them fear their child will come and complain that their scalp is itchy. The reason is because head lice are difficult to remove and they are annoying.

Head lice are small, wingless insects which feed on human blood and are very contagious. Usually kids in school get them but it can happen to an adult just as easy.

Even though they are not dangerous they can be quite annoying and cause itching and an inflamed scalp. If they’re not eliminated in time the situation can get really bad because they multiply very quickly and can even lead to an infection.

There are many different types of lice shampoos and similar products available on the market but if you’ve dealt with this situation you know that they can be ineffective and rather expensive.

 Then there’s the infinite combing which can last or hours and still leave some of these pesky parasites behind. If you’ve tried every trick in the book and you just don’t know what else to do to resolve this issue don’t worry, we’re here to help you.

The following home remedy has proven to be extremely effective against head lice and if your child has them you should most definitely try it out.

You will need the following:

• Listerine mouthwash (or any brand).
• Lice comb
• White vinegar.
• A couple of towels.
• Shower cup or plastic bags.

Instructions:

First, you need to wash your child’s head with mouthwash until it is completely wet. Using a plastic bag, wrap the hair or cover it with a bathing cap. Leave the mouthwash on for at least an hour and carefully remove the cap.

Then, wash your child’s hair with vinegar and cover it again with a cap for an additional hour. Then, remove the cap and wash your child’s hair with regular shampoo. In the end, take a lice comb and comb the hair. The vinegar will eliminate the lice eggs from the hair.

The strong smell of Listerine will keep them away. Lice can’t stand the smell of spearmint. You can even pour some Listerine in a small spray bottle and spray your kid’s hair before going to school as a precaution measure.

This is a much better option than the commercially available lice shampoos because they’re usually full of toxic chemicals which can do a lot of damage to your child’s scalp.

Here are the advantages of using this natural remedy instead of the lice shampoos from the store:

• This remedy is natural and free from any side effects
• It provides long-term results (after treatment, lice are unlikely to appear again).
• It’s inexpensive
• Just a couple of spritzes will keep the lice away.
• You kid is completely protected
• It leaves the hair smooth, shiny and smelling nice
