Guest guest Posted June 3, 2005 Report Share Posted June 3, 2005 Yes it is in your best intreset to sit there and make sure that you go through the hair thoroughly with lice comb........ The Mayo and Tea Tree applications will kill lice but not guarenteed to kill the eggs; BUT the Mayo make hair slimey enough that eggs come off a bit easier. I do the combing with the Mayo on. Another thing that link is kinda right not all brands of Tea Tree are the same, and I used the Now product with my daughters hair, and I didn't use it indefinately!!! Tea Tree could be used as a weekly or twice a week preventative application. ONE THING you need to do is Make sure you wash ALL Bedding, with bleach (if whites), and dry in drier on highest heat setting. Get rid of all Stuffed animals, and OR take stuffed Animals & Dolls place in garbage bag for couple weeks...........any cloth toy!! Buy a spray for the Mattresses and Carpets. The couches too!! Its a lot of work, but well worth it in the end. One thing I could never understand, how one child could have it and another child be totally clean....UGH! I feel for you and all the hard work you have to go through!!! Sincerely, Marie , rachel tcharis <tprach@g...> wrote: > What I did is since I couldnt get the eggs out even with the egg > treatment.
