Lice when pregnant?

[dusty]

My friend is 11 weeks and has picked up lice from her kids. What can she use or do to get rid of them? She won't use any harmful chemicals.

she will have to put in conditioner(later heaps of cheap conditioner in dry hair, let it sit for 20 minutes comb with nit comb)and comb it out every 7 days until all the eggs are hatched. Once an egg hatches it takes 10 days to mature enough to lay eggs, so combing her hair through every 7 days means she catches them as they hatch before they lay again.

She could even comb her hair through with a nit comb in the shower when she puts the conditioner in.

The only way we do it is conditioner and metal lice comb (plastic doesn't do squat). I've posted a few times if you search you'll find it. Never used a chemical in my life and I've helped heaps of friends delouse.

Quit nits is safe to use and can be bought from Woolworths. My GP was the one that told me to use it after conditioner done nothing

The conditioner doesn't do anything. It just assists manual removal.

I only use conditioner and a metal comb on my girls and do it once a week to keep them bug free

Coconut oil dissolves their bodies too. Should be done after an apple cider rinse to dissolve the stuff that makes the eggs stick to hair. and comb with a metal nit comb.
