It goes without saying that head lice are something that we all hope that we will never have to deal with, unfortunately though it is a fact that, through no fault of our own, many of us will have the nightmare of our children bringing these nasty little creatures into our homes. Up until last summer, despite several letters advising us of infestations at my sons school, we had always managed to avoid the little blighters. I have always had long hair and even when I was at school I was fortunate enough to have never had headlice. However, after a day out at the zoo last summer we managed to bring home some of these nasty creatures, (no we didn't ...  Read the complete review

This review is not for those who are suggestible, in fact you might need to sit on your hands to avoid scratching. Everybody who has had kids will dread that letter coming home from school with the doomladen phrase "There is currently an infestation of head lice in your daughter Petunias' class and we recommend you to have her head shaven or treat her for nits or both." (or something slightly less Draconian!) Gone are the days when 'Nitty Norah the Bug Explorer' grommetted around in every child's head and eradicated the things with one glare of her steely eyes. (The nits, not the kids!) Gone are the days (thank God!) when you ...  Read the complete review

Nit picking Nits are an occupational hazard for me as I have worked with small children all my working life and these animals often visit and infest childrens heads, So first what is a nit? It is the egg of the head lice tiny little lice that lays its eggs on hair. Let me tell you of an event in a working day similar events happened here at home with Sally and I. Imagine a small child a head of short blond hair (could equally be any length and any colour) he is sitting next to me at the table working his hand is scratching just behind his ears, he concentrated on the game he is playing with me then his hand goes up to scratch ...  Read the complete review

Eeeeekkkk!! Scratch, itch, tear the hair out! Ok, that's probably not practical, although would serve to eradicate the problem quicker than most alternatives! I expect loss of locks would not be the desired option for most, so what's on offer to irradiate these endearing little squatters in your kids hair, and, dare I say it, ours too! (Yep! They are not in the slightest bit fussy!). I am sure in some point in your life your kids, friends kids or somebody have received the monthly letter from school reporting "a" case of head lice, please check your child's head etc. You duly pin down your child and pick and part the hair to ...  Read the complete review

Head lice, Nits, Electrocute them!!! This is a brilliant idea, it`s the same sort of comb as the usual plastic ones, but it`s metal, and has a battery. It literally electrocutes and kills the lice or eggs,when it comes into contact with them. It does work, but it also it it`s drawbacks. My girls have very long hair and because of it being metal, it doesn`t comb through the hair so easy & catches, breaking the hair. Also each time it comes in contact with a lice or theres one stuck in the comb, it squeaks/beeps...but it also does, if there is any trace of wet....so after a hair wash is not always the best time, unless you are sure the ...  Read the complete review
