Lice Lice Lice

Every year parents everywhere get notes from school that there is an outbreak of head lice. There are packaged remedies, but hands down the best product for getting rid of lice is Petroleum Jelly. Get a big jar and apply freely. Wear gloves and apply the petroleum jelly through the hair and scalp. Then cover the head with a shower cap, plastic cap, or plastic wrap overnight. The lice will suffocate under the petroleum jelly.

Then the trick is removing the petroleum jelly from the hair. From personal experience, working at a children's home, there is nothing that does the trick like Dawn Dishwashing Liquid.
