How To Treat Head Lice
The first thing that I have to say about How To Treat Head Lice is to avoid acting rashly out of panic or embarrassment. Head lice do not transmit disease and they do not cause any serious harm to infected individuals.
Now for a short list of treatment strategies that should be AVOIDED.
- Bleaching is not an effective treatment.
- Hair Dyes won’t do the trick either.
- Do NOT put kerosene on your child’s hair.
- Insecticides meant for Ants and Cockroaches are a very bad idea (I had never heard of anyone considering that, but it is on the list).
- Shaving your kid’s head will cure the lice problem, but it can leave emotional scares, experts say DON’T DO IT.
