Vinegar Get Rid Of Lice
Health Encyclopedia: Pubic Lice

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.
