    I had lice soo many times when I was young



    KP24 (and a couple of other brands) burnt the hec out of my head when I was young. Not saying that'll happen to your LO's but just so you know it can happen.

    Lice don't discriminate, clean/ dirty/ long/ short hair.
    They dont jump (lots of people think they do though), they need direct contact ie, touching heads/ a way to crawl onto the next head
    I have heard of the Lavender thing but never tried it. We used to use a few drops of tea tree oil in a spray bottle, and spray the hair once or twice a week, which worked great to keep them away.

    We never did find a treatment that worked really well But the lice treatments with tea tree oil worked best.

    It's so horrible, I hope you can get rid of them quickly. *shivers* Just thinking about it is giving me the heeby jeebies.
    They did a story on one of the current affairs shows about people who were sensitive to the chemicals in head lice treatments, and the only one that did not burn people was Thursdays Plantation Head Lice Gel. I found it in my local health food shop.

    Has anyone heard of the Robi Comb? It's an electronic comb that 'zaps' the lice when you comb through the hair...

    My old boss used to use it on her DD. Not sure how well it worked though. She always used a treatment as well.
