Do Pesticides Kill Head Lice?
Sorry! Head Lice have become incredibly resistant to over-the-counter pesticides and prescription pesticides. In November 2013, Fresh Heads Lice Removal participated in a nationwide study led by scientists at the University of Massachusetts. The study wanted to gauge just how resistant head lice are to these pesticides. The results were astounding and clear: Every single bug that Fresh Heads Lice Removal sent for the study (and we sent hundreds!) was completely resistant to over-the-counter pesticides. Even prescription pesticides are largely ineffective, particularly on the nits. Further, these treatments are toxic and can be very expensive.
