About Littlebugs Lice Repellent Mint Spray 8oz
As a parent, you probably have many questions about head lice whether your child has an infestation or there has been an outbreak. We hope the information below will help provide the answers you need to understand head lice, prevent, and treat an infestation. Where do head lice come from? Human parasites, lice do not originate from the ground or air, and are thought to have been around since time began due to the fact that nits (eggs) and dried up lice have been discovered on the scalps and hair of Egyptian mummies. How do lice spread from one person to another, and do they jump? Head lice do not have wings or hind legs, and cannot jump, hop, or fly. They are spread due to direct contact of the hair or head of someone who has lice, and may also spread through the sharing of hair accessories, brushes, combs, even towels or helmets. What are the active and inert ingredients in head lice products? In some treatments, solvents such as isopropyl alcohol are used to kill lice. Manufacturers may use such ingredients as "inert" or what is perceived by the public to be a harmless ingredient, or as an active ingredient. Unfortunately, some of the active ingredients that are said to destroy head lice are stronger in regards to toxicity than pesticides, and "inert" ingredients should never be assumed non-toxic. Are natural or non-chemical products effective in eliminating head lice? Remedies that contain no harsh chemicals or pesticides are always preferred over pesticides. Ingredients such as neem seed oil, spearmint leaf oil, olive oil, rosemary leaf extract, and others have proven extremely effective in both the prevention of head lice, and eradicating infestations. However, the most important aspects of any lice treatment are thorough, repeated combing and screening.
