My 12 yr old has been battling head lice since she was about 2. She is now on the third time in about 45 days, each time it was completely gone. We even moved and washed everything in between cases. I just took her to the DR. and we got Ovide. I am hoping this helps. But I doubt it will help for long. She has very thick and semi long hair. She gets it when the wind blows just right. She is also a magnet for fleas & mosquitoes. Dr. said it is her body chemistry. I would like to see this product you have developed made into something for someone like my daughter. I would buy it, if it is proven to work. I hate using all these chemicals on her, probably 7 times a year.
