HOW TO GET RID OF LICE FAST!! 😲🦟 AND KEEP IT FROM COMING BACK!!

I wanted to share my secret sauce for how to get rid of lice fast!! I use a chemical and natural based approach for instantly killing head lice and the ongoing treatment there after to ultimately rid lice and keep a large infestation from reoccurring and happening badly again! I know how stressful it feels for your children to catch lice and/or yourself so I wanted to share the methods that have greatly changed how I deal with lice in my home to help put other mother's and people at ease. Just remember this happens to sooo many families so don't feel ashamed and since you found this video I know you will be informed and armed to handle it and feel confident about ridding the lice if it reoccurs again in the future!
Something I left out is also if you know you or you child was around others while having lice, PLEASE Inform the schools and those people so they can keep a minor issue from turning into a big issue for themselves and their family. #killlicefast #licetreatment #momlikely

Lice can live up to two days before dying.
Lice also becoming immune to the otc head lice kits. They have come out with a super lice kit. It also includes a small can of spray for furniture. Also when vacuuming, you will want to empty the canister into a garbage bag and seal it up or take the bag out and throw it away and get rid of the garbage bag immediately don’t leave it in the house. You can bag up stuffed animals, pillows etc in a garbage bag and tie it so the bugs can’t get out and leave items in the bag until you wash them or at least two weeks is what is recommended. You can verify all this information with a professional. Wash bedding, clothes, and anything that is washable in hot water and laundry soap and dry them on high heat for at half an hour even if they dry faster. Make sure everything is completely dry. I use cedarwood essential oil and tea tree Essential oil mixed with 1 part 6% vinegar & 2 to 3 parts water and a few drops of Dawn dish soap and at least 10 drops of each essential mixed in, of which I use those two and lemongrass eso, peppermint eso, lavender eso, clove eso and eucalyptus eso to the bottle and I shake it up good to mix the soap with the oils so that will mix with the vinegar and water and I use it as a spray for pest control in general. It won’t kill anything in a shell like a larvae pupa shell or not eggs but it will kill everything else at other stages. It works as a deterrent as well as a natural pesticide for more than just lice. It’s also safe for pets and kids and adults but do try not to spray it while they are nearby as it can cause skin irritation for people who are sensitive and you don’t want it in anyone’s eyes or lungs including pets. I have used certain essential oils on my skin and on my dog but what’s safe for us is not always safe for dogs or cats and even between different animals there can be different reactions and you don’t want them to like it off for the same reason. Check vet websites and double check which essential oils are safe for use on your animals. I’ve sprayed my curtains, my carpet, floors, around doorways, corners, cracks, crevices window and sliding door tracks, in kitchen cabinets that were empty and so. Even on my ceilings with popcorn finish because meal moth larvae like to form and go into there pupa shell in the ceiling crevices or cracks.
Just adding from my own extensive research as well personal use and experience. Good luck to anyone who has to deal with lice, or any other kind of pest infestation. Some are harder to deal with and get rid than others. And it’s time consuming, takes your energy and everyone else who lives in the home and it doesn’t matter how much or how often you clean. Anyone, even the most sanitized homes can easily get an infestation. So dont pass judgment if you’ve never had to deal any of them. Just count your lucky, very lucky.

My boyfriend was asked by his sister to shave his 9 yr old niece’s head because they were tired of the repeated lice problem. I offered to treat her hair so she didn’t have to get it shaved. OMG I am 43 & this is my first time dealing with lice. What a production! Thanks so much for your video!!! Life saver. 💯❤

[elisamaurerbailey]

We struggled with lice for what felt like months! We tried everything! The thing we were told was heat like straightening and blow drying the hair daily seemed to help us!

[dianafike]

I used Pronto foam head lice meds that killed active bug's then mixed baking soda and vinegar with shampoo. It killed and dissolved the glue that held the nats to the hair strand. I used the comb that came with the Pronto foam. I was getting the dead bugs and nats. I combed for about an hour. Then my grandson used a blow dryer. He is 15 this was his first time ever getting lice. He got it from a friend of his.
I ended up getting it also. I used the same method as I described above..
I bagged up all blankets and pillows. He hasn't slept in his room for two day's. We will be using the sticky roller. So far everything seems to be back to normal. Thank God!! I'm 67 with headlice OMG 😱😱😱 never thought about that at all.

We put tea tree oil in our shampoo to prevent lice.

[vaskylark]

Daily washing (Suave Coconut Oil shampoo because lice don't like coconut) and a Rid kit at least once, and then daily blow drying right onto dry hair on the highest heat setting your kid can stand will wipe out the problem for good. I had to treat my elderly mother, and her two great-grandchildren (my sister's grandkids who gave it to my Mom). Those kids had been battling it off and on for two years and I wiped it out in less than a week with this method in all of them. The heat from the hair dryer destroys nits so they die and can not hatch and when you turn hair dryer on the live ones go on the RUN and you can easily get them with a nit comb. I have really long hair but I'm also very tall so I worried about getting them myself but I never did. I also washed their bedding/jackets on HOT water and then dried them in the dryer for a good LONG time so the heat would kill them. They've been lice free now for five years. I'm their guardian now after my sister died so I still do periodically check their heads but it's all good :) Blow dryer, blow dryer, blow dryer. I also had everyone in the house for one week do daily blow drying on our dry hair enough to heat up the head and scalp just to make sure it didn't spread. Lice like to hide around ears and back of head near neck too I found so don't forget to blow dry those areas. It's uncomfortable for sure but it works.

I've used Vaseline in my 4a hair, the texture and curliness, plus the shampoo, also tea tree oil & peppermint oil has helped mine and my daughter's hair. The Vaseline smothers the bugs, and helps the nits to slide out easier, without pulling all my hair out.
Thank you for letting everyone know it's not a "dirty person, " thing... My daughter was extremely scared she's going to be looked at as if she were a dirty child. Staying calm, and perseverance throughout this time is the best advice. 🎉🎉❤ Thank you, 😊 for just making a video with experience and explanations for all of us mom's going through this alone. You've made a new community member out of me! God bless 🙏🏼

Dads appreciate you too. Thank you for the information.

[dellarodriguez]

My daughter's haven't had any lice problems so far but my sister's daughters do and what she does is she mixes tea tree oil in their shampoo and in their hair spray

[lauriedavis]

OMG, I am a teacher, and I just got head lice and I was absolutely mortified on Friday but here I am on Saturday watching your video and even though I’m crying and combing out my hair I know that the outlook will be better call her. I have used the medicated shampoo to kill the lights and I will go buy some apple cider vinegar tomorrow. Thank you so much for this video.❤

[AnnettaHanshew]

This video is awesome. I am a nurse at an elementary school so this was very helpful. You explained everything really well. I think it will help a lot of Moms. Thank you☺️

[yenyandco]

I’ve been dealing with this on and off for a few months. When I think we’re good my daughter has them again. I think someone in her class has them and she keeps getting them. Now my little one has them so I will go thru all these steps and hopefully get rid of them for good! Thanks for sharing!

[Winefred]

Thank you so much for this video. My daughter is 10 and just got lice from school back in October, we did the lice killing treatment and did all the laundry and such and have been using the preventative shampoo daily and all the things but I didn’t know we needed to do a second treatment a week later nor did I know about the ACV treatment. My daughter’s school nurse told me we would be all set after that one treatment and laundry and such. Well last week over Christmas vacation while she was with her bio dad they noticed she had lice again and they did a lice killing treatment on her and that’s when her dad showed me the box he got that said a second treatment must be done in 7-10 days after the first one. I also called her pediatrician this time and they also confirmed to do a second treatment. Her dad told me when he did the combing her found A LOT of bugs and eggs. The time in October I didn’t find too much but there definitely were some at that time.

Your video is so informative and helpful and has eased my stress about it a bit. I’m going to be doing her second treatment in the next day or two and then will be following your instructions to do the ACV treatment and the heat from the hair dryer as well and also all the combing. I want to make sure we get them all this time. I always have added tea tree oil to our shampoos but I think I will now also add peppermint as well and add both to our conditioners and detangler spray.

Also another thing you should have mentioned is to boil hair brushes and combs in hot water for at least 10-20 minutes and/or spray them with the house/furniture spray that kills lice. Also another thing is to either throw away hair ties and replace with new ones or spray with the lice killing furniture spray and then put them in a ziplock bag for a day or two.

The year my kids got it, my washer AND dryer broke! It was HORRIBLE. I would treat them and give the follow-up treatment and a week later they were itching again. It got to the point that when they scratched I automatically gave a lice treatment, even if I couldn't see anything. My friend had to snap some sense into me and tell me that we now had dry skin from over-treating and that's why the kids were now scratching. To this day I have at least six lice shampoo bottles in my bathroom cabinet "just in case".

[lindseycoria]

I remember my little sisters and I getting lice a couple of times growing up. My mom would always be very frustrated, annoyed, and was visibly exhausted. I remember feeling very guilty, and just overall remorseful. I'm so glad you included the part of being calm to not scare your child. This is very important. 👍🏼

[apriltackett]

I have a 9 year old and 2 year old. This is my first time as a mother doing this. I'm so grateful for this video

[AngelInTheCloudz]

Thank you so very much for posting this video! It’s very informative and detailed! I’m almost 60 years old and have NEVER been exposed to lice until now. I’ve been trying to find out what is biting me and I think it’s lice! It’s a very weird feeling when you feel like something is crawling in your hair, around your face, neck, among other places on your body!
I’m really glad that I found your video and will use some of what you’ve explained here to help me get rid of them, hopefully! 🤞

So I was telling Shawna this morning is that we used the old school brown Listerine in a spray bottle. My children are also mixed and have different textures. My husband has dreadlocks and we used this on him as a preventative measure. So what you do is saturate the hair with brown listerine. Then wrap the hair a plastic bag (like a tshirt bag). Then use a hairdryer on the plastic bag for 15 to 20 mins so the hair inside the bag gets hot. Times vary depending on what your child can handle heat wise. Then you leave it on as long as possible. I had my kids sleep in the plastic bag (or maybe try a shower cap). The next morning we washed hair and used a hair mask. The bugs and eggs just slide off. We repeated this process 5 to 7 days later. To make sure we got them all. I hope I explained this okay. Hope this helps someone else. 😁

[claudyliefveld]

Thank you so much for this. My daughter has eggs we found today and I freaked out haha. My head is itching now too in fact my whole body is itching. I’m freaking out. This will help us a lot!

[teagreen]
