Use The Best Home Cure For Head LouseSubmitted by afranks Wed, 6 Jun 2007
If you need a child head louse treatment, don't worry. There's nothing to be concerned with because many hundreds of thousands of kids and adults are infected with louse each year. The good news is that there are easy ways to rid yourself of a head bug infestation.
One thing to realize however is that this problem is NOT a dangerous to anyone's health. Unlike other parasites like mosquitoes that can transfer blood borne disease, these critters cannot. These bugs are a nuisance, easily transferred to others, can be very uncomfortable but are generally not dangerous to your health At first look, the number of different treatment options may seem a bit intimidating. Fact is however that they all can be grouped together into one of four major categories. All treatment plans will fit into either an insecticide based program, an essential oil or natural solution, a mechanical solution or a home remedy / folk medicine solution The vast majority of home remedy, do it yourself methods are designed with the idea of smothering the bugs and loosening the eggs from the hair follicle. If you choose one food product or another, the principle is still the same. Here are the Four basic Categories of Child Head Louse Treatment 1. Bug poison or insecticide based shampoos. Whether you get them from the doctor, locally or from the Internet, they all kill using a poison. These products do a good job if you don't mind using poison on your kids hair. Don't forget all the scratching and itching has probably caused open sores on their heads which is a good way for the shampoo to get into their bodies. 2. All mechanical means to remove the parasites and eggs involve carefully combing from hair follicle to the tip of the hair. It's a big chore in someone with long hair. Still, it is an effective method of insect removal as long as you don't miss even a single nit. 3. Essential Oils. These products use a variety of essential oils to disinfect and kill off the insects. These work well and are much safer than insecticide based shampoos. The scratching and itching caused by the sores and insects are also treated providing a measure of relief to the person with the infection. 4. Try on of the home cures from the Web. There are many well meaning people who have posted their own personal child head louse treatment solution with most involving various food products. The mess and the problems to use these pediculosis remedies as directed aren't worth saving a few dollars. Pediculus humanus is a fancy term for a head louse infestation. What you may save in money, you will end up wasting in time and effort to deal with these messy solutions. Overall, these are the worst of the lice killing ideas. I understand that some people have claimed that these methods work but considering the mess and the fact that they don't work for everyone is enough consider them low in effectiveness. Deciding what child head louse treatment option is best depends on your level of comfort with using insecticide based products. While the idea of using insecticide based products on your children may not bother you, you may want to remember that there are some people reporting that a lice product using insecticides as the primary pest killing method are becoming less effective. This could be simply people not following the instructions for use properly but regardless, it's critical that you use any product as directed, exactly as directed.
