- A lice comb
- Mouthwash
- White vinegar
- Shower cap or plastic bag
- A towel
What to do:
1. The first thing to do is make use of the mouthwash, since lice dislike the strong smell. Wet the hair with this, before covering it with a shower cap or plastic bag. Let this stand for an hour.
2. After an hour, rinse out your hair and soak it in white vinegar instead. The vinegar actually helps to get rid of the eggs. After the hair has been covered, let it sit for an hour again.
3. Wash your hair with regular shampoo and comb it with a lice comb.
4. To lessen the chance of your child picking up lice at school, spray their hair lightly with mouthwash. This can deter lice from opting to call your child’s head a home.
