Body lice or dog lice can also be resolved with appropriate treatment. The steps below will help you get rid of lice completely from today.

Steps

Method 1 of 2: Get rid of hair lice

1. 

   Choose a lice killer. Using a lice killer is the fastest way to fight back lice growth. Some drugs are designed to kill both the lice and the eggs, while others are intended only to kill adult lice. For the second type it is recommended to use twice. To use a lice killer, read the instructions on the bottle carefully and take the following steps:
   • Wear old clothes and sit in the bathroom. This makes bathing easier.
   • Apply the medication to your hair and scalp according to the instructions printed on the bottle.
   • Waiting for the medication to take effect for the allotted time is usually an hour or less. Do not let the drug soak for too long compared to the instructions.
   • Rinse with water, do not use shampoo for 2 days.

2. 

   
   
   Use a lice comb. This step will help to speed up the effect of the lice killer, but you can simply get rid of them with a comb. Lice combs are specially designed to remove eggs and dead lice.
   • Divide your hair into two parts.
   • Start brushing from the scalp, from the roots to the ends.
   • Dip the comb in a bowl of warm soapy water. This will kill the lice and nits quickly due to the source of the herbicide.
   • Continue brushing each side of the hair until all of the hair has been combed.
   • Clean the comb by immersing it in a dish of hot water after each use. Head lice and eggs will die when exposed to temperatures of 50 degrees C for 5 minutes or more.

3. 

   
   
   After the initial treatment, wash all clothes, bed sheets, pillow cases, stuffed animals, and any other fabrics used by the person with lice, wash in hot water and then dry thoroughly. Although lice will not live long when separated from their heads, care should be taken to thoroughly wash the furniture so that other family members do not get lice.
   • For items that cannot be soaked in hot water, such as hair brushes or hair accessories, pack them in a plastic bag for at least two weeks. This way, lice will have no food and air supply and will die.

4. 

   
   
   Watch for lice in your hair. After using the killer or combing, keep an eye on the part of your hair every 8 hours for lice growth. It is very difficult to completely get rid of lice after one treatment. Carry out brushing every 8 hours continuously for 3 days. Then, continue to examine the scalp every 16 hours and brush if necessary for 2 weeks.
   • Most lice killers should be used a second time 10 days apart to get rid of lice that have developed from the last time.

5. 

   Use lice-killing oils to help speed the elimination process. In addition to the killers, there are also natural substances that help kill lice. If you are sensitive to chemicals, use the following oils to kill lice.
   • Cook ½ cup coconut oil or warm ½ cup evergreen oil and massage into hair and scalp. These two oils both have antibiotic effects.
   • Combine the use of a comb on the hair that has been oiled. This will make it easier to remove the lice eggs.

6. 

   Use apple cider vinegar to kill lice. This is an economical and effective way to get rid of lice eggs. Mix ½ glass of water and ½ cup apple cider vinegar, then rinse your hair and scalp. Use a brush for the hair; This will make it easier to get rid of the lice.

7. 

   Use an essential oil spray. Some essential oils can get rid of lice and nits from the hair. Add 5 drops of essential oil to about 30 ml of water and place it in a spray bottle.You can use one or more of the following essential oils:
   • Tea leaf oil
   • Lavender
   • Marjoram
   • Mint
   • Thyme grass
   • Eucalyptus

8. 

   Getting rid of lice is a long process. Adult and immature lice can be easily eliminated, but nits are difficult to eradicate. If the head lice are not completely destroyed, the head lice cannot be completely removed. Care is always taken to get good results. advertisement

Advice

• Lice infection is not caused by poor hygiene. Even people with clean hygiene can get lice, not just those with dirty habits. So if someone teases you, that's not right. Don't panic when you become infected with lice - this is a common phenomenon many people experience.
• Use a hair straightener on nits. The radiant heat will remove all lice.
• Do not share hair accessories with others.
• One natural product that is effective in reducing the spread of lice is fresh rosemary. Many rosemary scent shampoos and sprays are known to repel lice. There should be about 2-3 sticks of fresh rosemary in each family member's pillowcase. Can be placed under pillows so as not to interfere or interfere with sleep. After a week's time, the lice will crawl out of the hair and stop laying eggs.
• Infection with lice is not necessarily caused by poor hygiene - this is a common problem for everyone. Check those around you to make sure they are not spreading to others.
