Can You Get Rid Prevent Lice With Vinegar
Health Encyclopedia: Pubic Lice
Pediculosis - pubic lice; Lice - pubic; Crabs
Treatment
Pubic lice are best treated with a prescription wash such as Elimite or Kwell:
- Thoroughly work the shampoo into the pubic hair and surrounding area for at least 5 minutes.
- Rinse well.
- Comb the pubic hair with a fine-tooth comb to remove eggs (nits). Applying vinegar to pubic hair before combing may help loosen nits, but the hair should be dry when applying the shampoo.
