Getting Rid of those Annoying Creatures with Head Lice Solutions


Getting Rid of those Annoying Creatures with Head Lice Solutions


If your children have a head lice infestation, there is no real reason to fret. Millions of children suffer from head lice and that too in developed countries. Doctors explain that lice do not cause any real illness and the worst they can do is to cause severe itchiness which is not always the case.
It is more common for children to get lice rather than grownups. There being a number of reasons for this. Lice are not great jumpers and these transfer to other humans through contact. That is mainly kids that have physical contact especially with the head while playing at school, and in playgrounds that are suitable for a louse transferring. You should consider visiting a salon, offering head lice solutions.



Generally speaking children like to hug and play with their pets. Dogs and cats often have lice dwelling in them, and that is one of the main reason kids have more head lice as compared to adults. Lice can be removed by hand and a comb. The removed lice and nits (eggs) and nymphs(baby lice), because of their tiny size, it is not always possible to kill all the lice, nymphs, and nits by crushing, as quite a few survive. Lice and nits can be placed in a mug of water, and then flushed into a W/C or at some far away disposal area. The bed sheets, sofas and carpets should be thoroughly washed so as to remove the lice and nits. All pets in the house should also be cleared of these creatures. Medicated liquid solutions for animals is a good option as animals have large hairy areas and removing lice and nits on an almost daily bases would be an arduous task.



The life cycle of a louse (singular for lice) is about 5 weeks after hatching. The eggs are called nits and these hatch after about 1 week into baby nymphs. These are about the size of a pinhead. After another week or so they become adult lice and live in the head for about a month, sucking on blood. Without blood, lice cannot survive for more than two days. The color of the lice varies from yellowish grey to grey and slightly reddish maroon. An adult louse is about the size of a mustard seed and gets much larger upon sucking and storing blood. The egg nits are attached to the scalp while the adult louse is suspended upside down on a single hair, the distance is far enough for the mouth of the louse being close enough to suck on blood from the scalp.



One would not like to give very young babies medicated lice shampoo. The chemicals in the shampoo may be harmful to the skin of your baby. As for head lice solutions with completely natural substances like oil available that are effective against lice removal from babies. Some of the natural oils effective in removing lice being, tea tree, Eucalyptus, lavender, Rosemary, and cinnamon oil and a lot more. Vinegar is also a very effective natural substance used for lice removal.
