Nits

Dd has them. We've been conditioning daily and combing daily with a nitty gritty comb. She has bum length thick curly hair.
Each day were only getting maybe 4 tiny ones. We comb for 30 min. In tiny sections.
Problem is her hair is the same color as tiny nits.

I think maybe a treatment may just be the answer now. When my elder children had them many years ago. We just did the condition / comb and it worked.

What's the best treatment.

Hedrin 5 mins.

Try different combs also. The local chemist mat have a good metal one.
Remember to change pillow slips every night and wash the bedding every 3 days.
