When your kid develops a head lice infection, that look of fear and unhappiness in her eyes is sufficient to drive any parent to intense measures. And when the lice start to bite and that itching sets in, you need a solution that kills the lice now to stop the biting and that sheds them utterly so the difficulty is solved forever.

We know now that even though you use a lice elimination shampoo that kills the lice that are alive on the child's head at this time, that's not an abiding solution. Because adult lice lay thousands of eggs in the hair of your kid, inside a few days after you kill one generation of lice off, the subsequent is hatched out to start the cycle all over again. So elimination of head lice is a 2 pronged war. It is war against the adult lice that are making your kid sad.

And it's war against the eggs which will hatch out more lice the week after next.

You have got to win both battles or you lose in the long term. And like any war, you have got to know your weapons so you do not employ a weapon that kills the lice but creates other stressful issues along the path. That's the quandary we are facing in using almost all of the forceful shampoos that are made for slaughtering lice. These shampoos are so powerful that if you checked out the bottle and concentrate on all the alerts, this stuff can frighten the heck out of you. It can be damaging to the eyes and even causes to the skin if the shampoo gets on an open sore. It is harmful if swallowed as well so it appears that there are far more methods this shampoo can hurt your kid than it can often help her. The good news is there are some natural methods to control and eliminate head lice that aren't deadly and have been working for a while before all these new chemical treatments were invented. The easy way to deal with the first front of the struggle against the adult lice is to suffocate them in a heavy treatment kills them wherever they're on the head. Incredibly easy household mayo does the trick. By working a generous application of mayo into the scalp and ensuring terribly fiber of the hair is covered, the lice have no where to hole up. It is recommended to leave the treatment in place for approximately fifteen mins to make certain they're all dead and then permit the child to give it a clean out and employ a metal toothed brush to take the dead lice out of her hair. To dispose of the eggs from hatching into more lice, there's an all natural application made from the sap of the oriental Neem tree that interrupts the development of the lice eggs so they can not hatch. It also kills developing lice who've just hatched out.

By employing this combo system and keeping the scalp clean at all points, you can beat lice and stop the suffering of your youngster.

And you can do it without putting her at heavy risk. Those are the roles of a good parent like you.

There is an amazing variety of ways to kill head lice once they get a start living and breeding on your scalp.  The urgency to kill the bugs becomes impossible to ignore when you feel the tingling of them walking around on your scalp or when the bites makes your head itch so much that it seems like it wont stop.  So the first priority is to get rid of those active lice in your hair.  Never mind the fact that having a head full of lice is disgusting.  If they are going to disrupt your life that much, they have to go.

Because it is impossible to number how many lice are part of your infestation, the idea of killing them one by one is pretty much out of the question.  If your child has come home with lice from school, you can take a magnifying glass and tweezers and pick them out of her scalp one by one.  But this is a losing strategy for total success because there simply is no way to get them all that way.

The only true solution is to use a treatment that covers the entire head at once and kills every bug in your hair once and for all.  Lice treatment shampoos do that and they are effective.  But these shampoos are laced with insecticide which is quite dangerous to the host, which is you or someone in your family.  It is bad enough to put yourself at that kind of risk but to put pesticide on the head of your child or the child of a loved one is simply to big of a risk to take.  Documented cases where pesticide based lice shampoos caused illness or death in children only emphasize that another solution is needed.

At the most extreme end of the solution scale is shaving the head of the person suffering with head lice.  This is not dangerous and once the scalp is bare, it is easy to wash the scalp and rinse away all of the lice.  Most of them will go out with the hair when you dispose of it.  But it is a drastic thing to do to a child and for a woman, the idea is absurd because it broadcasts to the world what you had to do.  If there was no other way to kill the lice, that would be acceptable.  But there are other ways.

The easiest way to kill off all the living lice on your head is to smother them or expose all of them to something lethal to lice.  There are dozens of natural ways to do this including mayonnaise, lemon juice, vinegar, crushed almonds and lemon and coconut oil.  Tea tree oil is a well known treatment for lice which has a documented track record of success and its totally safe.  By finding the right solutions to lice infestation before you have the problem, you have a game plan for defeating lice before they can take over.  And just having a plan to kill an enemy like head lice can give you and your family plenty of peace of mind.
