10 Home Remedies For Lice
Home Remedy #1: Petroleum Jelly
Petroleum jelly, also commonly known as Vaseline, is a jelly-like substance that is a welcome addition to many first aid kits. It can help to cover and protect small wounds and can also act as an effective lubricant. Most homes have some and, if not, it is very easy to obtain.
Among its very uses is its ability to help kill head lice. It does this by helping to suffocate the lice and also effectively sealing off their food source, which is blood from blood vessels on your scalp. You should rub it onto your scalp at night before you sleep, making sure to cover your hair with a shower cap or similar.
