In India you will get it in any pharmacy. But I dont know in your place. Sorry

Hi ladies,

My daughter has this as a perinniel problem. This is the remedy I have tried for and it is 100% safe and foolproof.

Warm a little coconut oil and add few drops of Ecualyptus oil (nilgiri oil). Massage into your head and soak for minimum 30 min. While soaking do remove all the bigger lice with a comb. After that shampoo your hair. This can be repeated one a week or twice according to the infestation. Slowly the nits will also die.

First I was using Mediker but I found that her infestation was becoming more rather than decreasing, then my parlour friend suggested this and I use on her every sunday as a precaution as she goes to school.

Thanks Lalitha. This is an excellent method which I never heard before.

Perlice..i think is available in India..is great ,a medical miracle in eradicating lice.. For few lice..one wash is enough..No home remedies worked for me ..when i was in school.This came handy.

You may apply pure neem oil mixed with warm Coconut oil, twice-thirce a week for one month. After few hours of putting oil, comb your hair well with a fine theeth comb. It should work.

You can try a lotion called perlice. Try that. I used it only once and all my lice vanished. Such a great lotion. If you have more may be you can use it twice.
Max of two usages are more than enough.
