I have head lice. How can I get rid of them at home (no money)?

You get a monthly SSI check because you said your Mom is a greed terrible payee and you want to remove her. You also have stated in a couple posts that you have lots of electronic items and wanted to purchase more items to make some questionable profanity video(s) using the "N" word. One of our beautiful loving member give you excellent counseling not to do such a project. I don't always comment but I do read 99.99 of questions.  Again see my instructions and comments on your precious 3-4 questions.

IMO your refusal to follow any of the Blurtit Community excellent advise, tells me you are making up situations for attention.

First bed bugs and now head lice, Johnny? What's the problem here? 

Money isn't the answer, you can't pay the lice to leave. 

For the sake of your health, borrow a couple bucks and get yourself some shampoo containing Nix or Ovide (Rx strength) and you'll need a special comb to remove the little beasts. Then wash all bed linens in hot water.

It might be a good idea to examine why these critters are so prevalent in your life. 

Dear Johnny,

I did some reading on the Net...it looks like even with the prescription treatments, sometimes the head lice are getting resistant. I found a couple links for you, also Tom Jackson's link gave good information.

It sounds to me like that special comb is really helpful, no matter what method you use. Washing your hair won't help, the nits can stick really tight.

And in addition to Gator Blu's suggestion of mayonnaise, one site said that olive oil, same treatment overnight with a shower cap, will also suffocate them, plus loosen the nits.

Are you able to just shave your head, tie a headband or something till your hair comes back? Seriously, if I were you I might consider that.

btw, I am always glad to see your questions here on Blurt.

This site is really choked with ads, but it seemed to have good info.     http://www.health.com/health/gallery/0,,20641598,00.html#spinosad-0

This is a slideshow, gave some good basics I thought:           http://www.webmd.com/children/ss/slideshow-lice-overview

Hmm .. No money huh .. Maybe you should sell some of your electronics equipment that you were worried about in an earlier post.  I'm thinking your family is probably also experiencing the bed bug and now lice issue .. THIS is something that must be treated as a household problem .. The bedbugs .. I understand you have sprayed the entire house .. The lice, will have to be pretty much treated the same .. It affects your entire household.

D con

shave your head completly

Just put neem oil on your head twice a week it would help.

For someone who might actually want to know, many people use mayo. Put a thick coat on your hair and put on a shower cap. (A tied plastic store bag can work too.) Leave it on for at least 8 hours. You can put it on before bed and sleep in it. Leave extra time in the morning for shampooing it out as it will take several washes to do so. You will need to reapply 5-7 days later to get any eggs that hatch, and then again in another 5-7 days.
