Headlice (Pediculosis) can be a devestating condition. Don't care if your poor, middle or high class; all I care about is that you have a head of hair & a scalp. I will definately enjoy laying numerous eggs close to your scalp especially at the nap of your head (when I do this I use a very sticky substance very close to your scalp making it extremely difficult to remove by your fingers which is the only way to remove them for the special combs are a waste of your money). If need be I'll move to other areas of your head or drop off of you & use your furniture, carpeting, bedding or anything that has come in contact with your head. If you insist on not sharing hats, coats, scarfs, combs, & brushes, you make my life extremely difficuly to survive. OH NO, HERE COMES MY BIGGEST & BEST KILLER CALLED NIX SHAMPOO (no Rx. required). If your smart enough, you'll do everyone in the household & repeat with the special shampoo 1 week later (not sooner). Now if your really smart, you'll eliminate me also from your household for this is usually where most people don't follow through with the instructions. If I've been in your household for about 6 months that your aware of, it makes it much more difficult for you to eliminate headlice from your residence. The cheapest way to eliminate me from your household is to wash/dry anything that has come in contact with your head; if you can't put me in a washing machine & dryer, then put us into a sealed plastic bag for 30 days & we're all dead by then. Don't forget to also do a thorough vacuuming of your furniture. You may also choose to shampoo your pets also with the special Rix Shampoo & repeat the special shampoo in 1 week. If you've followed these instructions RELIGIOUSLY, you've FINALLY ELIMINATED ME FROM ALL HUMAN'S, PET'S & THE HOUSEHOLD. Don't forget not to share hats, combs, brushes, scarfs nor anything that comes in contact with anyone's head plus be cautious whomever sleeps over you house OR ELSE I JUST MIGHT MOVE BACK IN MAKING YOUR LIFE MISERABLE ALL OVER AGAIN. Keep in mind that someone in your residence caught it from someone outside of you household. Try to rid me & keep me out of your household forever. If these INSTRUCTIONS are not sufficiently helpful(I'm a School Nurse & contend with this problem annually) you may either email me back for more indepth instructions or contact your Local Board of Health. I don't envy you. The easiest problem is eliminating it from your heads; more difficulty is eliminating it from your household. Have you had any repeated sleepovers during this problem? Don't expect them to admit they have the problem!! GOOD LUCK!!!!!
