[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My trusted pediatrician advised us to keep the OTC medicated treatment on 4-5 times as long as the packaging recommended. We did this and also a meticulous comb-out. It did the trick and we haven't had an infestation since. Your thoughts?[/quote] As in RID or some such product? Why would you want to keep a pesticide on your child's head for even the recommended amount of time? When pesticides are completely unnecessary? And they often don't kill nits. The meticulous comb out by itself is all you need to do. I'm not usually an all-organic, crunchy mom. If I felt pesticides were needed to kill lice I would use them, and in fact have used them in my early days. But now I have learned they are completely unnecessary. So why expose my kids to that if I don't have to? I realize it's not going to kill my kids but, why add one more unhealthy thing to their lives? Those are my thoughts. [/quote]
