The correct way for the treatment of lice

Head lice have been around for as long as humans have been in existence. They are small, wingless insects that cannot survive outside the human scalp and have been overriding reason the way during the year. They cannot jump or fly and are not dangerous or a sign of poor hygiene. They are highly contagious in direct contact with another person who is an infestation. Head lice affect 1 in 4 children aged from 4 to 11 in Australia today. There are still a lot of stigmas of having headed lice, but in reality, it's just one of those things that the kids come with home.

Old-fashioned Pantry treatments included simple items such as mayonnaise and olive oil, while kerasine was also very popular. While these ingredients have been working to address the problem were not gentle to the scalp of children, has left an unpleasant odor and hair very greasy. Today, there is the possibility of a treatment based on head lice and chemical treatments based natural. And generally a personal choice for which product to choose. However, tests have shown that the traditional chemicals such as malathion, permethrins and piperonyl butoxide / pyrethrins have worked well in the recent past tests have shown that lice are becoming increasingly resistant to these ingredients. 

Council key to successful treatment is to treat the lice comb and defend against future infestations. The lice treatment killed the lice (live lice) from paralysis or suffocation. Above all, the treatment should be massaged into the scalp to ensure full coverage of adolescents live lice on the scalp for the first few days of their lives. 

After treatment, the eggs (nits) is still attached to the hair shaft and will still host a live embryo. To remove the eggs you will need to comb the hair with a comb, physically remove the eggs is the only way to get rid of them. Using a magnifying glass will be identified nits as they are much the same size of a sesame seed.

It is not uncommon for nits to be left behind. It is almost impossible to get from first to last. Re-application of the treatment 7 days after initial treatment ensures that all young larvae are uprooted. Use a spray for prevention and tie long hair back in a bun or braid. Fewer fly away hair, the better as the lice will use these elements to make their way up to the scalp.

It 'important to tell the teacher or carer you have found lice and that the treatment was administered. This may lead to a memo from the school or day care to encourage all parents to check their children for head lice. It is strongly recommended that parents monitor their children's hair for head lice at least once a week using a comb. Catching an infestation early can reduce the likelihood of other children get head lice in the classroom and also make treatment a little less traumatic.
