I was glad because I'd been threatened with having my hair cut short if I got them again (and I could sit on it at that point in time) I don't think it gets rid of them, but it doesn't let them come back once you've spent the small fortune on the treatment to kill them.Hippomanic Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12285378246081322317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3474627686283911965.post-39729002081286202622012-04-23T08:41:34.144+10:002012-04-23T08:41:34.144+10:00We've had fleas if it's any consolation an...We've had fleas if it's any consolation and the chickens had mites (shudder).

If you ever know of a head lice exposure, go home, saturate the entire head in mayonnaise and leave on for a few hours. Then, rinse with vinegar. I have a friend who dealt with lice for MONTHS and she found this to be the best treatment...<br /><br />FYI: I got lice my senior year of high school. Waist length uber thick hair resulted in my parents spending over four hours combing nits out. Ick. I was horrified and begged to be never required to return to school where I would surely be ostracized.<br /><br /><br />As for pin worms, I have one child who used to get an annual case, so the whole family would be treated. <br /><br />Good times.

Yep, one of my sons went to see a dermatologist for these brown patches he had on his skin. The doctor told him how we all have fungus growing on us and for some reason, his is growing quicker then normal, hence the brown spots. <br />Now you can go take a shower and try to wash the fungus away.mamahasspokenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18049292242708654609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3474627686283911965.post-27479666788893666702012-04-22T19:52:06.695+10:002012-04-22T19:52:06.695+10:00oh I remember the bed bug plague.

Thankfully it's been a while since we have seen them.<br />I gave up on the head lice comb and now just go through their hair section by section and pull the eggs out with my nails. Takes longer but far less painful! Hairspray works well as a preventative in their hair, and for what it's worth moov is my favourite poison!<br />Parasites = aarrggghhh!Swift Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04508120826182596977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3474627686283911965.post-39628289621534189252012-04-22T15:45:51.525+10:002012-04-22T15:45:51.525+10:00Lord.
