You see your child scratching their head and you think to yourself, sometimes an itch isn’t just an itch. So what do you do when that itch turns out to be head lice?

If you’re anything like me, you are already itching. I HATE bugs of ANY kind. The moment I even think about lice, my scalp starts tingling and I start itching!

We recently teamed up with The Nit Nanny to provide you with some excellent information about lice and the treatment of lice. With school in full swing, it’s inevitable that our darling kiddos will come home with a note that someone in their daycare or school has lice. Not only are we equipping you with some valuable information, we’re also thrilled to offer you a chance to win a $75 gift card to TARGET (yes!) and a bottle of Nit Nanny Mint Spray. So take a moment to enter the giveaway, then keep reading so that you will know what do you do if someone in your family gets lice!

Per the CDC, between 6-12 million children and adults get head lice each year in the US alone, as well as up to twice that many unreported cases.  Anyone who comes in head-to-head contact with someone who already has head lice is at the greatest risk.  With close contact at schools, camps, sleepovers,  the crowding over electronic devices kids are always doing to get a look at the latest internet sensation and the constant selfies kids take, you can see why lice spreads so easily.  Girls between the ages of 3-15 have the greatest chance of getting lice, then they can easily spread throughout their family.

What do you do if someone in your family gets lice?

Dump chemical and pesticide laden over-the-counter products on their heads and wish for the best? Ignore it and hope it goes away?  No…One adult female can lay 10 eggs (nits) a day and she lives for 30 days…do the math.  They feed on your scalp blood; the bites are what cause the itching.  Many people are allergic to the bites, thus the itching.

First of all over-the-counter products available today like Rid, Nix and head lice shampoos for purchase in pharmacies have become ineffective, lice have adapted and have become resistant to the treatment.   The plastic combs provided in the OTC kits are not effective at combing out all nits and bugs.

Second, many products are dangerous, they are loaded with neurotoxins and worse.  Compare the ingredients of the top over-the-counter products to a can of Raid…A CAN OF RAID! It’s truly frightening.  Some of the killing agents in lawn chemicals contain identical ingredients as well. THAT is some scary stuff.

Most home remedies are ineffective. Smothering lice with mayonnaise and olive oil for example will not work. Those melt, breakdown and liquify due to your core body temperature which then allows the lice to breathe, not killing them.

As parents we do our best to protect our kids, so reliable and good information is key.

Lice Lifters, headquartered in Lafayette Hill Pennsylvania has come up with an all-natural and extremely effective in-store lice treatment process as well as the Nit Nanny Line of all-natural products to take lice out of your life.

The Nit Nanny Products will end your lice problems with no harmful chemicals.  From the first application, all adult lice will be killed, after that you follow the treatment plan.  Nit Nanny Products are all natural and do not liquify therefore smothering and killing all live activity in 10 minutes.

  1. Wishing I had known about these products before I went and treated my kids with the OTC chemicals…That was all I knew to do back when they got it from school. It took 2 treatments and over a week of combing…never want to go through that again!

  2. Oh, it makes me cringe! I’m hoping that the kids never get this, I will totally freak out! Glad that there are different options for remedying this situation! Thanks for the article and the giveaway!
