Dealing with head lice can be frustrating, but prevention might be easier than you think. One effective strategy is incorporating tea tree oil into your daily routine to reduce the risk of lice infestations.

Kim Wright, a mother, shared a handy tip on Facebook, suggesting adding a few drops of tea tree oil to your kids’ shampoo or making a diluted tea tree oil spray. This simple and natural method is especially useful during the back-to-school season.

Tea tree oil not only helps prevent lice but also repels mosquitoes. However, despite preventive efforts, lice infestations can still occur. Thankfully, there are effective treatments to eliminate them if needed.

Adults are not immune to lice, so using tea tree oil spray as a preventive measure for yourself is also beneficial. By following these steps, you can protect your family and keep everyone lice-free.
