Believe or not, several people have come to me to find a lice "Cure". We found one, experimented, and it's very effective. Most people don't have this many essential oils just laying around, so I've been making up some "washes" for them. In a small jar, container, etc. mix:
3 tablespoons of Olive Oil
25 drops of Tea Tree EO
12 drops of Rosemary EO
15 drops of Lemon EO
15 drops of Lavender EO
massage this solution in hair, let it stay in for at least an hour!! The longer, the better, putting a shower cap over the hair. After treatment, wash hair with Dawn Dish Soap.
This removes the oils (and the bugs)
Then you have to go thru the hair, as with other treatments and remove nits.
I know this is not a subject anyone wants to discuss, but it's a real problem around this time of year, with school starting, day care, etc.
Oh yeah, when I made the lice treatment, the only bottles I could find to put it in was the bottle that all the little kids around here love to drink, "Bug Juice". I know, strange sense of humor, but I sure did get a chuckle out of it!!!
