Now we will try to give some practical advice.
So, you examined the child and made sure that he has lice. Of course, I want to get rid of this scourge as soon as possible! But do not forget that the destruction of only lice will not solve the problem - you still need to think about how to get rid of nits. You have to work, consisting of several stages. So how do you get rid of nits? First, find in your locker a comb with the most frequent teeth - those that are almost adjacent to each other. Wash the child's head, then rinse with balm so that the hair does not tangle, and then comb it well, trying to comb out as many nits as possible. However, alas, the process is not complete.
While you are doing the indicated procedure with shampoo and comb, let someone fromhome runs to the nearest pharmacy for a remedy for pediculosis. Fortunately, the choice is now wide - and ointments, and sprays, and shampoos … Reject your grandmother's advice to treat your head with kerosene right away - it spoils the hair structure and can generally damage the scalp. Better get something more modern and gentle.
Before using the tool, carefully read the instructions - it describes in detail how to get rid of nits with it. Unfortunately, one treatment is almost always not enough - in about a week you will have to repeat everything again.
Dry Nits
After the treatment with the drug against pediculosis is carried out, it remains to find out how to get rid of dry nits. It's simple - you need to comb out again or try to select the remaining nits with your hands.
By the way, in case your mother manages to pick up nasty insects during all these manipulations, we will advise one simple but effective method - you just need to dye your hair. The chemicals contained in the paint instantly neutralize the "enemy" - all that remains is to comb your hair properly.
This is important to do
After the hair of all "suspicious" family members is "neutralized", be sure to process the sheet, pillowcase, duvet cover, towel, clothes and headgear, that is, things that the infected child used. Do not be lazy to do this, because the hated lice hiding there throughthey might come back for a while, and - please - our song is good, start over!
For disinfection, things can be washed at a temperature of 90 degrees or boiled at all, and even better before that, treat with a solution of vinegar or a special agent. Then you should use a hot iron with steam or a steamer.
Now you understand how to get rid of nits. May this he alth problem be your child's last!
