100ml vegetable oil (for example, sunflower or olive)10 drops eucalyptus
20 drops rosemary essential oil
20 drops lavender essential oil
10 drops geranium essential oil
Funnel the vegetable oil into a dark glass baffle, add the essential oils and shake well. Apply to wet hair(otherwise it will be difficult to shampoo out the oil) by massaging well into the scalp to reach the hair roots. Leave it on for at least one hour (preferably up to three hours) then shampoo thoroughly. Remove dead lice and nits with a regulation finetoothed comb (essential oils destroy the lice but not the eggs). Repeat the treatment twice more at three-day intervals to ensure the infestation is completely cleared.
