Myth: Only pesticides work to remove lice.
While some parents may want to rush to their nearest pharmacist for a harsh chemical to remove head lice, the truth is that this is not the only solution, and more and more, it is not the most effective. As lice and nits become more resistant to chemical treatments, natural solutions such as enzyme-based shampoos become more important. Not only are enzyme-based shampoos safer, they can never lead to resistance and will always be effective for removal of nits.
