Head lice isn't something people like to talk about, but it's important to know how to prevent its spread. Here are some tips from Adie Horowitz, owner of Licenders, which seeks to eradicate lice without using chemical-laden treatments.
- Know the “lice” time of year
Winter: Travel time, clothing layers, hats, gloves, scarves, etc.
- Prevention products: peppermint is a deterrent scent to the bug, many shampoos/conditioners contain this ingredient
- Once per week throw backpacks, hats and jackets in the dryer for 20 minutes
- Educate children on the importance of not sharing hats, hair-bows, jackets and gloves
- Check your children frequently for head lice, it’s much easier to get rid of if you discover it at an early stage
