No more nits

nits

Every parent of school age children will understand my frustration of head lice and nits. You get that dreaded note home from school asking all parents to check for head lice and treat accordingly. Then the cycle seems to continue for weeks on end because not everyone treats their kids immediately and once again your child comes home with nits. Sheets are torn off beds as a few choice words are thrown around. Towels are washed, headbands and brushes soaked in boiling water….AGAIN! The next few hours are spent searching through the kids hair looking for nits to pull out. I went through this routine two weeks ago and I am now going through it again. I thought I had covered everything but then I saw my daughters school hat… oh no! I didn’t have time to wash and dry it before school so I had to come up with another was of stopping this nit infestation from starting all over again. Ah Ha… surface spray. If it kills flies and cockroaches it’s bound to kill these blood sucking parasites. I turned my daughters hat inside out and gave it an all over spray. After airing out for a little while off it went to school safely treated for nits. If we gets nits anytime soon that can of surface spray may get an encore!
