Best Essential Oils For Lice & Nits

Are you someone facing issues with nits and lice? Don’t worry and thank us later because fortunately you can do away with them with essential oils.  

Head lice are parasites that feed on human blood, but they don’t carry any disease. The reason it itches is because they crawl and can neither fly nor hop. But if they don’t get blood, they die within 24 hours. Also, they have nothing to do with one’s hygiene, in fact, anyone can have them. 

Natural ways of getting rid of head lice are: 

• Wet combing. 
• Using anti-lice hair products. 
• Using all organic lice-killing essential oils (Tea Tree, Lavender, Eucalyptus & Neem). 
• Oiling regularly and using special combs that help in removing nits and lice. 

The all-organic Anti-Lice Spray: 

MATERIALS NEEDED: 

• 1 spray bottle. 
• 15 to 20 drops of any one essential oil listed above. 
• 2 cups of apple cider vinegar. 
• 6 teaspoons of fractionated coconut oil. 

DIRECTIONS: 

• Saturate hair with the blend spray, then part them and comb thoroughly.  
• Leave it on for at least 12 hours. Then securing all hair on a white cotton towel, comb through thoroughly to remove nits and lice.  
• Use Shampoo, conditioner and clearly rinse off the oils.  
• This mixture can also be used later to prevent the lice from coming back. 

Happy DIYing! 😊
