Beware the National Pediculosis Association
Please take the review by the National Pediculosis Association with a large grain of salt.This is an organization that is at odds with all of the major medical organizations regarding the treatment of lice, including the American Academy of Pediatrics, the Harvard School of Public Health, and the Centers for Disease Control, to name a few.The NPA discourages the use of all lice products except nit-picking using one particular comb, which they sell.All of the research they refer to on their website dates from the early 1900's.They do not list their own credentials, or even their names, so I suspect that they have no medical or research credentials at all.It would appear that the NPA is an authority on lice in the same way the Flat Earth Society is an authority on the shape of the planet!

got lice, get book
After a harrowing ordeal of relentless combing and spending big bucks on commercial products, i broke down and bought this book.since following the olive oil regime, my kids have been lice and nit free, while to date, my neighbor is still nitpicking and washing bedding. Good humor, good advice.Buy it, use it and urge your school nurse to read it.

Easy to readmatter of fact solution to frustrating problem
I found this book to be very helpful in outling the process foreliminating headlice.The section describing the life cycle of lice fromnit to mature, egg-producing louse was very helpful in making clear why nitpicking and reapplication of treatment is necessary.My children have hadlice 4 times and each time have been able to clear up the problem before itgot out of hand.Daily manual nit picking (not relying on nit combs) Ihave found is the only way to produce a successful result.

The onlyconcern I have with the book is the advise to leave the treatment on thehair longer than the manufacturer's recommendation of 10 minutes.Whenusing such potent chemicals, I think it is wise to follow themanufacturer's instructions carefully and not overdo.Longer is notnecessarily better and may actually be harmful.

The National Pediculosis Association pans LiceBuster book
The National Pediculosis Association critiqued this book, giving it two thumbs down.The book contradicts its own directives and authorizes the use of chemicals in ways that fly in the face of approved indications by the Food and Drug Administration. Such misuse of pesticidal productscan pose health risks to children.References are made to scientists David Taplin and Terri Meinking to falsely imply their approval of the contents of the book. The National Pediculosis Association has requested that this book be pulled from the market. It is the NPA's opinion that the misinformation imparted by this book has added to the unnecessary confusion surrounding this public health problem.The NPA has also received many complaints about the book from school nurses.

A great resource for lice-weary parents!
I have found this book to be very helpful in combating head lice. There is not a great deal of hard information out there, and that makes lice eradication so frustrating! Another thing that I like about this book is its calm, reassuring attitude: You WILL live through this, and you will conquer! A necessity for parents of school-age kids ... Read more

Product Description
This guide was written for those out there that have tried every single over-the-counter remedy for ridding yourself, or a loved one, of those pesky critters, head lice.

I know, it's tough to get rid of them. Often times, down near impossible it seems. Even prescription remedies don't always work. It seems as if lice have built up a tolerance to most cures. As with most insects. Thereby making it even more of an uphill struggle to kill them.

The information you have in front of you was designed with this in mind. So, if you are someone who has tried everything on the market, and are still coping with this embarrassing, and time consuming problem, then what is to follow will hopefully help you in some form.

It is also here to help you identify head lice without a doubt and know that this is what you are dealing with before moving ahead with any plan of treatment. In addition, it will tell you where they live and breed, which is not always on the head, as most think, so that you can be sure you have gotten rid of the problem once and for all.

Throughout this guide you will be given helpful tips on how to not only rid head lice from your person, but also how to insure that these bugs are not hiding within your home to prevent further exposure having to perform the treatment procedure all over again. And again.

Before you read, be aware that not all the cures will work for you. I suggest that you try a couple of them out. You may find one within these page that will. Please note that most experts will disagree with the process of "home remedies" in general and tell you that they are not effective treatments. This is not always the case and often, a home remedy can provide better results than those suggested by experts.
