Other symptom can be the presence of lice egg in the hair, which hold the hair very tightly and confirm that lice are present in the hair.
Prevention
Head lice are easily transferable when any one comes in contact with already infected person. So, to avoid them, one should not come in contact with the person having them. Don’t use any comb, pillow, sheet, brushes or towels used by the infected person.
Remedies
Apply vinegar on the hair, which would kill all the lice present in the hair. Also, add tea tree oil in the shampoo and use it everyday.
Apply mayonnaise to the hair and wear a shower cap and stay for at least 4-5 hours. You would see that lice would die and fall in the shower cap. This is a very effective remedy.
Take one tea spoon garlic paste and one teaspoon lime juice, mix them and apply to the scalp and stay for at least 10 min. Repeat this after 6-8 days and repeat until all the lice have gone away.
Applying coconut oil and then combing using a lice comb is very best. After this wash the hair with shampoo especially made for lice treatment. Using shaving cream can also be useful.
Listerine also works very well. After the shampoo, apply original listerine and stay for sometime and wash off.
Take 6-8 almonds and grind them, mix lemon juice in it and apply to the scalp and wait for half an hour. This would help to remove the lice for the hair.
Applying lemon directly to the scalp can help in not developing dandruff as well as lice. Also, avoid sweet things as it is said that lice are attracted to sweet blood.
