A Head Louse Treatment That Works

There are a LOT of so called natural remedies for head louse running around on the Internet today. One of the more interesting is the use of food products as a head louse treatment. Mayonnaise, peanut butter, a variety of cooking oils and even shortening have been suggested as a head louse treatment.

The idea is to smother the lice and all require you to smear your childs head with this goo and leave it on for 8-10 hours! How you are supposed to keep a plastic bag on your kiddoes head overnight without them pulling and tearing at it is never explained.

After leaving the mess overnight, you then have the job of getting the mayo or peanut butter or food of your choice out of the hair. What a mess! That's why using an essential oil solution like ************* is a much better and easier way to deal with head lice and is an effective head louse treatment

Oh, studies have shown that lice can remain underwater over 8 hours without air of any kind. This kind of kills the idea of smothering the bugs doesn't it?
