As the name implies, head lice are specialized to live among the hair present on the human head and are exquisitely adapted to living mainly on the scalp and neck hairs of their human host
The most common symptom is itching of the scalp, caused when the louse bites through the skin to feed on blood
Other symptoms include insomnia, psychological disturbance (due to the unpleasant nature of the complaint), hair loss (in extreme cases) and irritation caused by the louse's saliva
Excessive scratching may cause bleeding of the scalp, which may increase the risk of microbial infection
Head Lice have always been a major problem especially in schools and there is much talk these days of the fact that they are becoming increasingly resistant to traditional medications
Once head lice have been dealt with effectively it is good to deter them as much as possible
This oil if regularly used can help to keep the creatures at bay
The combination of Rosemary which is reputed to have strong antiseptic qualities as well as having been used in general hair care for hundreds of years, Nutmeg and Peppermint whose distinctive scent is one that insects dislike creates a good oil to keep using for deterring head lice
The manufacturer makes no medicinal claims for this blend of oil and it is important to read the warning before use
