5.0 out of 5 stars This Comb Is The Answer!!! November 15, 2007

By Connie Cortesi

Item Package Quantity:1|Amazon Verified Purchase

This is the first time I have felt compelled to write a review for anything and I buy lots of items from Amazon. My daughter came home from a summer visit at her father's infested with lice. I thought it would be simple to get rid of. No clothes were allowed inside until washed. I treated her head with lice treatment. I spent two days picking out bugs and nits. One day at hotel and one at home. I colored her hair. All this before she was allowed into her bedroom. I know I spent over 12 hours straight combing through her hair and hand picking out bugs and nits. I have never seen anything like her infestation before. After having live bugs still running away from me after the lice treatment, I read all I could on the internet for other treatments. Mayo. Listerine. Olive Oil. Tree Tea Oil. Peppermint Shampoo. Tree Tea shampoo. I spent hundreds of dollars trying to get rid of these things. They all seemed to work to a certain degree, but not totally. I still combed nits out daily. You have to understand, when she first came home, she had 2 or 3 nits on what seemed like EVERY hair on her head. After 2 months my daughter's hair was prettier then it had ever been...although shorter to be sure! But I still found nits and bugs on occasion. I was at wit's end and shared many tears of frustration with my daughter. Who at no fault of her own felt so bad that she had these nasty creatures in her hair. Never have I been so frustrated or angry. I hated those little bugs!!!! Then I gave up and said ok, I'll try the stupid comb. What's 20 more bucks gonna hurt? The first night I combed though her hair and couldn't believe the stuff it pulled out. I had just dyed her hair (yet again) to try to kill off the little buggers, and I know I combed out over a dozen of them. Not to mention the nits. And other gunk, that I knew must be dead bugs and waste from these things. And to look at her hair, it appeared so clean!!! at the same time of being totally disgusted with what I was combing out, I was excited too! Was it going to work? day two, I combed again and got maybe 6 to 12 more bugs. Day 3...I'm down to only being able to find 4 bugs. Day 4 I had no bugs. Day 5 still nothing! She truly is lice free. I can't express enough how wonderful this comb is. I comb once a week now just so we never EVER have to go though this again. I truly don't understand why I had to go online to find this comb. No where in my town was it offered. Only the WORTHLESS over the counter USELESS chemicals that didn't WORK!!!! If you really want to get rid of lice in schools, this should be available everywhere. I hope just one person reads this, tries the comb and passes on what they learned. It really does make a difference and can save hundreds of dollars. Not to mention relieving the stress and frustration of parents everywhere...

5.0 out of 5 stars Definitely the solution April 13, 2008

After getting over the shock of our kids coming home from school with lice, the best solution we found is definitely the Terminator Lice Comb used in conjunction with Cetaphil Skin Cleanser.

At first, we tried the RID shampoo from the pharmacy which included a fine comb and gel. This did not work since nits hatch a day later and you cannot use the shampoo over and over. The shampoo has a pesticide in it that can be very dangerous for children.

After researching information on the Internet, the process we used that got rid of the lice within four days was the following: 1) wash hair and put conditioner in and leave it in, 2) comb hair with regular comb to get knots out, 3) section off hair and use Terminator Comb on each section (note: make sure you rinse Terminator Comb off after each stroke as to not spread lice, nymphs or nits), 4) completely rinse out hair conditioner and blow dry hair.

STEP 5) before bedtime, saturate hair with Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser all the way to the scalp. Put shower cap on child for the entire night. This step is important since the Cetaphil seems to keep lice and nymphs from crawling around and probably blocks the nits from hatching. However, this is not confirmed but makes sense if you read how nits hatch. Rinse the Cetaphil out in the morning and repeat combing hair with the Terminator Comb.

We did the above five steps for four days and noticed the number of nits declining considerably each day. By day four, we only saw a couple nits in the sink after rinsing the comb. NOTE: since nits hatch within 7-10 days, you will need to repeat the above process on day 7 just to double check. We checked on day 7 and found nothing. Since we're being super cautious, we checked day 10 as well and found nothing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Only Professional Nit Comb September 27, 2009

By mk

My family already had a serious problem with lice when we first detected them. Three of us had lice: myself, my 10 year old daughter and my 12 year old son. My daughter and I have long thick hair. We had been told by friends that the only way to get rid of the lice was to use a pesticide-based shampoo to kill the live bugs and then to pick out the individual nits one by one. Inspection and individual picking was thought to be needed because the plastic combs provided in the shampoo products are ineffective. Since my husband did not have the patience or skill to do the work, I went to a professional nitpicking service. The service used this comb and said it was the best one available. The process they used was to first spray the hair with a mixture of water and hair conditioner until it is damp, but not dripping. This makes the hair slippery enough to allow the comb to get through. Then the professional nit picker methodically combed through all the hair one small area at a time, wiping the foamy conditioner residue on a paper towel between comb throughs. By examining the foamy residue, she could see whether any nits or live bugs were removed. The entire process took a little more than an hour on my thick long hair. The service did not advocate using any pesticide based shampoo. They said the toxic shampoo products are dangerous and unnecessary.

Other key pieces of info: newly hatched lice cannot lay new eggs until they have been hatched for 7 days. Therefore, you have 6 to 7 days to remove all the nits, once the live bugs are removed. The service also advocated using olive oil covered by a shower cap overnight to kill the live bugs. I am not sure how important this is if you do a good job of removing the live bugs and nits methodically with the comb and conditioner. Also, if your child has very thin hair, the tines of the comb may not be close enough together to get out the nits. In this case, the service advocated sprinkling baking powder on the hair after the conditioner is applied to thicken it up to the point where nits can be removed.

One last point: we tried one of the "non toxic" enzyme based treatments that purport to dissolve the nit glue. One example on Amazon is Lice Eliminating Natural Shampoo, All Natural, Non-Toxic, Nit Free with Foam Applicator Kit. This can be used instead of, or in addition to the conditioner. I think it did help reduce the force needed to get the nits out and also stunned the live bugs making it easier to get them out with the comb.
