Head Lice

There is only one type of head lice unless u have crabs. But crabs are lice just u no down there

Yes but but they go back in

you rub it on the scalp and let it sit for 10 min and then wash it off and apply the shampoo

I think you put the salt all over you hair and rub it in. about 20 minutes later wash your hair and do it once a week for 5-6 weeks!!!!

hope it helps!!!

Yes. More than enough. As long as you were thourough with applying the mayo - that's plenty of time.

Yes, anyone can get lice.

Yes but only for a couple of hours as they need blood to feed.

I cannot locate a CPT code.

I believe it's because a physician will not usually conduct such a procedure. A physician will usually prescribe medication (ie., medicated shampoo), along with self- or parent-child procedures such as using a fine-toothed comb, and other advice to help rid lice of the head and the home (ie., bedding).

Lice are parasites that live off the scalp of a living organism, usually a human or animal. The mode of feeding in lice is known as solenophage. This is where the lice used its mouth parts to penetrate the scalp and draw blood.

No. Human Head Lice must have a continuous source of human blood (the scalp) in order to survive. They will dies in a matter of hours to days off the human body. The source for infection is usually hats, brushes pillows or other articles that are in contact with infested hair and then put in contact with another head of hair with in a short period of time.

they wold burn them of with a candle or pick them off like monkeys

yes, put Jojoba oil in your hair, its good for your scalp and the lice can't continue to stay in your hair

They are attracted to clean hair. When they "glue" the egg to the hair, it sticks much easier to clean, soft hair.

Head lice move by grabbing onto hair and moving along the hair. They can move up and down the hair, but go down to the scalp to feed (suck blood) about 5 or 6 times per day. Head lice can not move very well without hair to hold onto. They can not jump and they can not fly.

Yes nits (eggs) could be. That's why it is important to read the leaflet you got with your treatment. It will tell you when you should do the treatment again.

Primates, or monkeys have been seen many times picking of parasites, (perhaps lice, or fleas) and eating them. Its a way of group bonding. However, if you're looking for a domestic animal that you may be able to use to rid of lice I'm afraid you're out of luck...

The best way for me was mayo... put it in your hair your hair MUST be dry and leave it in you're hair for an hour and a half and then take it out with really hot water and then comb your hair with a lice comb (you can get them at drugstores) do this for the next 2-3 days until the lice is gone. good luck

What kind of lice do you mean?

There are three different kinds of lice that affect humans (head lice, scabies or body lice, and pubic lice).

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has a great overview on their website: http://www.cdc.gov/lice/index.html

You should wait about a week to make sure the lice are gone.

Nix is actually sold as a treatment for lice but it can also be used for treating scabies.

Scabies are mites that burrow under your skin. They are most often found in your armpits, around your waist or breasts, between your fingers or toes, around your buttocks, around your ankles, the soles of your feet or on your genitals. They cause intense itching that can be worse at night.

Using Nix to treat scabies:

1 - Apply a thin coat of Nix Cream Rinse over your entire body from the neck down, and rub it in well. Leave it on your skin for at least 8 hours but no more than 14 hours. (Infants over 2 months of age should be treated on the scalp, temple and forehead also. Talk to a doctor about treating infants younger than 2 months of age.)

2 - Wash yourself thoroughly to remove all of the Nix. One treatment is usually sufficient to get rid of scabies.

Other scabicides you can purchase over the counter (OTC) include Acticin and Elimite.

An alternative treatment for head lice is tea tree oil, sometimes called melaleuca oil. Tea tree oil appears to work well in treating head lice that have developed resistance to other preparations.

It will not hurt anything but it will not help with the lice.

no div, it dont. it will though burn your scallp
