Nits

Test it.

Get a petri dish,next time you see a nit in your childs hair put it in the dish with a small amount of vinegar (don't drown it as that wouldn't be the case if you were to put it on the head )

It will not die for hours,nothing to with vinegar,to do with no blood (food)

That's a fact,vinegar doesn't burn anything it is no where near acidic enough hth's

think about this:......
If Vinegar was acidic enough to "burn" nits..could you only imagine what it would do to your hair??? Nits have a hard outer shell for protection, hair doesn't.

If you've still got them, and tried all the usual lotions etc, go to the Doctors explain the problem, and they can give you a prescription lotion.

A couple of years ago my eldest child with long thick hair just kept getting re-infected - it was a total nightmare! I was using lotions etc, but gradually her poor scalp was getting sore, so I went to see the GP, he prescribed something called Carylderm - a thickish blue liquid. I used it on her once a week for 3 weeks - combing her hair with the old conditioner and nit comb every 3 days, and it finally went.

I now keep a bottle in the bathroom just in case - this is the only treatment I know works all the time!

Good luck in getting rid :hug:
