Natural head lice treatment

Natural head lice treatments have come a long way in the past decade whereby now there is ample choice between both pesticide based, natural treatments and inert substance based treatments.

In the later part of the past decade there have been numerous tests conducted to compare natural head lice treatment and chemical treatments. It has become noticed that these pesticide (or insecticide) based treatments are becoming less effective in the way of treating head lice as the head lice are becoming more resistant to them.

As a caution ensure you always read the label of the product you purchase and only use as directed. Why not try a test patch on a small area of the scalp to check for irritation before progressing with the complete treatment. NitWits do not recommend using products on children under the age of 2 years of age without first seeking medical advice.

Back in the day before head lice treatments were available in every pharmacy and supermarket mums were commonly using natural pantry products such as vinegar, mayonnaise and olive oil to treat head lice. Doesn’t do much in the way of fragrance, but using the same principles there are natural head lice treatment products on the market that use active natural ingredients that are plant and herbal extracts.

NitWits have developed a range of natural head lice treatment products, using natural ingredients to effectively tackle head lice and their eggs. Products include treatments, defence sprays and combs – view the NitWits natural product range.
