A Nightmare No More Thanks to Green Pest Control Options - If a child has had head lice, it is a memory you will never forget. First of all, you have to get past the repulsion of a parasite living on your scalp. Head lice feed off of human blood, lay eggs (or nits as they are called) all along human hair shafts and do all they can to procreate and take over the world.

The least disgusting thing about them is that they cannot live for very long on surfaces that are not human. So you have about two days for head lice to survive on furniture, back packs and in the car before they need to munch on a person and continue on their trek towards world domination.

Easily the most offensive truth about these vile critters is that they are spread with insane ease amongst school aged children. Infestations take off like wildfire in schools and day care centers across the country. Once a child within a class brings in head lice, it is just a matter of time until it is a collective nightmare for the teacher, for the families and for the poor, ostracized children known to harbor head lice, bugs or 'cooties'.

The dreaded memo comes home from school stating "A student in your child's class has been found to have head lice." Oh gag, now what?!

Most people immediately dash to the pharmacy and purchase expensive, toxic poisons that they then slather all over their child's head. The worst part of this typical treatment is the need to comb every single strand of hair - all 7 billion of them (or so it seems). You have to individually comb the hairs to remove the nits which are the nasty, sticky egg sacs that cling to hair shafts and sit poised to explode and release even more of these disgusting creatures.

But the truth is those toxic, synthetic chemicals are not going to do the job. Head lice are now immune to many of the pesticides sold to control them. These toxic, costly pesticides spread all over your child's head don't work.

But these poisons sure can hurt your child. Yes, you read that right. The over-the-counter toxins sold for the treatment of head lice are known to be contributing factors to ADHD, Alzheimer's, Asthma, Autism, and that doesn't even cover all the health issues starting with the letter 'A'. And it is a big alphabet.

So what can you do when faced with the doomsday memo from school? The correct answer is... Don't go the usual route!

There are green pest control solutions for head lice that are very effective and SAFE! Toxic pesticides have no business being slathered on the scalps of growing children so choose wisely. Use a green pest control option that works, that is safe, and if you pick the right one, will also wipe out the nits so you don't have to comb them out. Now that is a gift!
