(Medical-NewsWire.com, November 08, 2013 ) Charleston, South Carolina -- If you or a family member have experienced the dreaded head lice then you know how challenging it can be to eradicate them. Spread through direct contact between an infected person and an uninfected person, head lice most frequently occurs in young children between 3 and 10 years of age.
The challenge then becomes how to kill the head lice on the children and prevent these creatures from spreading to other uninfected household members the infected child comes in contact.
A well known prescription medication called Permethrin is typically prescribed by doctors. But did you know that head lice can be treated with Tea Tree Oil just as effectively?
A study conducted in Australia, where head lice is a big problem, and published in the medical journal "Medical and Veterinary Entomology" reported that Tea Tree was better than Permethrin in killing head lice. Virtually 100% of the head lice were killed by the Tea Tree versus only 82% with the Permethrin.
This week, we reached out to Southern Zoomer, a company that carries 100% Pure Tea Tree Oil and inquired how one might use Tea Tree Oil to eradicate head lice.
"To treat head lice with Tea Tree Oil add 10-20 drops to an ounce of shampoo. Massage in scalp and let stand for about 10-15 minutes. Rinse and repeat every day until all eggs have disappeared", says Susan Bridges, CEO of Southern Zoomer.
She also stated "combs, brushes, linens and anything that has come in contact with the lice should be soaked in a mixture of 1/2 ounce of tea tree oil, 1 ounce of glycerin, 2 ounces of vodka and 1 ounce of water. All laundry should be washed by adding another 20 drops of Tea Tree Oil to the washer."
In concert with the new healthcare laws beginning to take effect and in an effort to help consumers save on healthcare costs, Southern Zoomer announced beginning tomorrow and for a limited time they are offering an additional 10% off discount on their Pure Tea Tree Oil when 3 or more bottles are purchased and when they use coupon code TTCU796S at Amazon's checkout.
