DON’T USE PESTICIDES WHEN TREATING LICE

Pesticides when treating lice are dangerous and they don’t work.  At Lice Lifters we see that these products with pesticides don’t work.  Our clients come in after trying to treat themselves with Rid and Nix and they don’t work over and over again.  Lice Lifters treatments are all-natural and chemical free.  We use a heated treatment that kills lice and nits.

Any pesticide can theoretically cause allergic reactions, although some are more likely than others. Products made from a member in this family of pesticides are likely to precipitate allergic reactions, particularly for people with allergies, asthma or chemical sensitivities. One reason is that they cross-react with ragweed and other plant pollens.

In Designer Poisons, Marion Moses, MD suggests that these types of pesticides attack the brain and nervous system. She further states that they can irritate the eyes, nose and throat and cause skin itching, burning, rashes, stinging, tingling and numbness. Taken internally, signs of poisoning include tremors, salivation (drooling), vomiting, diarrhea and irritability to sound and touch.
