Natural Cures: Head Lice


A Natural Way to get rid of Head Lice

These nasty little critters give me anxiety at the start of every school-year! Worrying that my kids will come home with an infestation drive me nuts - so my number 1 thing is PREVENTION. I add 6-12 drops of pure Tea Tree Oil to our shampoo and conditioner (all year round) - this supposedly keeps them at bay. Knock on wood we haven't had an outbreak in our household yet....! :)

But I found a natural treatment for head lice at one of my favorite websites if ever we have one - we will be prepared to combat those annoying little critters! Check it out: http://snipurl.com/gdsyz

I passed this remedy process along to a neighbor of mine who had the unfortunate honor of having to treat her kids....she said it worked like a charm, is a bit time consuming, but worth it as opposed to using all those chemicals they try to sell you! And now they use Tea Tree oil in their shampoo/conditioners and haven't had a problem since! Good Luck!
