the letters get sent home about the dreaded headlice i dont know about anyone here but im sick to death of trying to clear the kids up only to find within a few days they are full of unwanted lodgers again (thanks to those at school who never do anything ) anyway after months and months i came up with this and it works so i thought im gonna pass it on to all i know with kids empty sports water bottle cheap cooking oil (they say olive oil but i like the cheapo option) tea tree oil lavender oil fill sports bottle with cooking oil, add 20 drops of each the tea tree and lavender oil and shake, the reason i say sports bottle is because it is impossible to pour small amounts of out from normal bottle without getting plastered yourself, comb hair, cover hair in mixture and thouroghly comb through with nit or fine toothed comb, allso as a precaution get a spray bottle fill with water and again add 20 of each drops of oil and spray hair daily. I my self have battled with these lodgers for years and this potion actually works and a little goea a long way you will need to wash hair twice after but thats a little price to pay for nit free kids tea tree shampoo and conditioner allso coconut oil (not tried yet) i checked out ebay and people are selling their ingredients for potions for £2 plus, allso i have seen the plastic nit combs for £2 plus postage and you can get EXACT same ones in wilkos for 25p

I swear, if other people cared about getting rid of them as much as us - our kids wouldn't be coming home with them! My second eldest says that her friend's mum wont comb her through because "her mum doesn't like them". Neither do I, but I still have to bloody do it!
