CONCLUSION.

This guide was written for those out there that have tried every single over -the-counter
remedy for ridding yourself, or a loved one, of those pesky critters, head lice.
I know, it's tough to get rid of them. Often times, down near impossible it seems. Even
prescription remedies don't always work. It seems as if lice have built up a tolerance to
most cures. As with most insects. Thereby making it even more of an uphill struggle to kill
them.
The information you have in front of you was designed with this in mind. So, if you are
someone who has tried everything on the market, and are still coping with this
embarrassing, and time consuming proble m, then what is to follow will hopefully help you
in some form.
It is also here to help you identify head lice without a doubt and know that this is what you
are dealing with before moving ahead with any plan of treatment. In addition, it will tell
you where they live and breed, which is not always on the head, as most think, so that you
can be sure you have gotten rid of the problem once and for all.
Throughout this guide you will be given helpful tips on how to not only rid head lice from
your person, but also how to insure that these bugs are not hiding within your home to
prevent further exposure having to perform the treatment procedure all over again. And
again.
Before you read, be aware that not all the cures will work for you. I suggest that you try a
couple of them out. You may find one within these page that will. Please note that most
experts will disagree with the process of "home remedies" in general and tell you that they
are not effective treatments. This is not always the case and often, a home remedy can
provide better results than those suggested by experts.
Also, it is important to note that using common over -the-counter and prescription
pesticidal treatments such as NIX or RID or a prescription that is even stronger, can be
harmful to yourself, your loved one, and the environment. And most disturbing is that many
of these types of dangerous remedies are no longer as effective as they once were due to
over, or misuse.
There is help for the dilemma of Head Lice. And now you have the infor mation in front of
you to guide you towards an affordable, and most importantly, a natural, effective solution

QUICK HEAD LICE Q. & A.
What Are Head Lice?
Head Lice are human parasites and are transmitted by human contact with an infected
person. They are not transmitted via animals, including the family pet. The reason why is
because head lice, as mentioned earlier, are a human parasite and live off of the
consumption of human blood.
They are generally small in size(adults can grow as large as a sesame seed) and dark in
color(usually brown) making them often times hard to detect. Adult lice females lay eggs,
referred to as NITs as close as possible to the “host's” hair shaft. The female bugs can lay
up to 150 NITs in their life -cycle.
The medical term for a case of head lice is Pediculosis, or sometimes referred to as
Pediculosis Capitis(infestation of the scalp with lice). They are considered to be
contagious as they can be spread from one person to another, but are not considered to be
a harmful disease.
Based on recent medical information, head lice do not normally carry or spread harmful
diseases, and do not carry any harmful diseases. More often than not, they are best
described as a nuisance than anything else.
Head Lice also do not travel through the air nor can they be transferred onto a human head
from the ground. They have no ability to fly and cannot "jump" from head to head as was
suspected previously.
Therefore, the most likely case of parasitic transferral is by clothing, including towels,
sharing hair grooming tools such as a brush, hair barrettes, hair ties, or combs
