    Hi - you can also try neem leaves just under his head or a very little amount of home made neem powder paste and wash off immediately or diluted neem paste water over the head. Neem is very very effective.

    But if you dont see many lice/lice eggs, just manual extraction daily should be good enough. make sure people around him doesn't have lice.

    Safe home remedy here is to apply mayonnaise which supposedly suffocates them.

    Dear Telja,
    It is good u started check it every day. I recommend, you check it peacefully when you are feeding the baby, or when baby taking nap. as I told you before, no quick fix here.

    shaving off - check with your family members- esp. mil, check if there is a custom of shaving the baby's hair.
    some have after 1 year/ or as Barbie said- after 3 months. etc.

    check for this option.

    regards
    resmi
