Homeopathic Treatments for Lice
-
Tea Tree Oil
-
Like many oils, tea tree oil naturally kills lice. To kill lice, apply tea tree oil to your hair and leave it on overnight. Simply wash out in the morning, and continue the treatment for several days to fully cure the problem.
Vinegar
-
Just as tea tree oil kills lice, so does vinegar. With just two days of use, vinegar will kill the lice effectively. Wash your hair daily with vinegar to see the best results.
Mayonnaise
-
Mayonnaise also works well to fight head lice. Simply massage your head with the mayonnaise and leave it in for two hours. When the time is up, comb it out. This should kill all live lice and their eggs. Shampoo as you normally would thereafter.
Mineral Oil & Vinegar
-
Mix equal parts of mineral oil and vinegar together to make a hair wash. Apply the mixture to your head and cover it for about an hour. Afterward, wash your hair with a normal shampoo. This should help to kill whatever lice remain on your scalp.
Almond Paste
-
Make an almond paste by grinding eight almonds in two teaspoons of lime juice. Massage the paste onto your scalp and leave it on for approximately 30 minutes. Wash your hair thoroughly afterward to remove all of the paste.
Garlic Paste
-
Just as almond paste kills lice, garlic paste does as well. To make garlic paste, mix one teaspoon of garlic with one teaspoon of lime juice. Apply to your scalp for 30 minutes and wash thoroughly to remove the scent of garlic.
Castor Oil
-
Castor oil applied to the head is also an effective way to kill head lice. Leave it on your scalp and wash out at night as you normally would.
