Around this time each year parents become concerned over the problem of head lice. Head lice are not dangerous and considered not to spread disease but do affect 10 to 12 million children annually, generally age 3 to 12. Head lice are almost as common as the common cold and highly contagious easily spreading from child to child through direct contact.
These tiny, wingless parasitic insects live on human hair and feed on blood drawn from the scalp. One can visibly see them and their small yellowish-white oval shaped eggs called nits that are glued at an angle near the base of a hair shaft.
The products to rid a person of hair lice run a gamut of possibilities that can sometimes be harsh, cause allergic attacks or be toxic with chemical pesticides. Recently a product has entered the US market from Australia that seems to by pass these concerns and even leaves hair soft and shining while eliminating the problem of both lice and nits. More important it has a 100% effectiveness and extremely high customer satisfaction- no returns in the last four years!
It’s called Quit Nits and was developed by Leanne Preston of Margaret River, Australia. The cream uses an Australian herb Quassia Amara 2X HPUS, containing quassin, one of the bitterest substances in the world. This cream effectively kills the lice and eggs in such a manner that is gentle and non-toxic. No combing of hair is required and it has a pleasant smell. Unlike pesticide based products, Quit Nits does not contain any ingredient that is suspected of causing health problems for pregnant or nursing mothers. If in doubt then one should consult her doctor.
There is a second part to the kit called Everyday Preventative Spray. This helps prevent lice infestation both prior to exposure as a proactive measure and after infestation to avoid reoccurrence. What makes this formula special is that a few sprays on the hair and you now have a hidden alarm pheromone that warns lice to stay away from the hair. Pheromones have a history of effectiveness in the insect world, using them helps to avoid the use of toxic chemicals and pesticides. The product is available in health food stores, vitamin shops, and pharmacies.

Questions about Quit Nits:
I have completed the treatment but I can still see live lice in the hair. What should I do?
Sometimes the treatment has not had sufficient contact time with live lice and they appear to move quite slowly. These lice are dying and should be removed with the fingernails.
I can still see eggs attached to the hair the following day. Has the treatment failed?
Not at all, the remaining ‘eggs’ or nits which are visible are either dead or empty shells. Simply remove with the fingernails.
I used Quit Nits treatment but my child came home from school re-infested two days later. Is Quit Nits safe to use again?
Quit Nits does not contain any toxic pesticides so it is safe to use as frequently as required.
The kit does not contain a bedding spray. Why not?
Head lice can only feed on a human host and must feed hourly to remain hydrated. About an hour after being separated from the host they begin to dehydrate and become ill. After 24 hours, they will die. Simply laundering and drying head scarves, hats or pillows is sufficient to kill lice. Using bedding sprays only increases you child’s exposure to pesticides.
If I’m pregnant or breastfeeding can I use your product?
Unlike pesticide based products, Quit Nits products do not contain any ingredient that is suspected of causing health problems for pregnant or nursing mothers. The products should be safe for use except in circumstances where there is a history of allergy to the active ingredients. If in doubt, consult your doctor.
Why should the cap be removed overnight when using the Advance Treatment product?
Although it is important to keep the Advance Treatment wet, it is essential to remove the shower cap from your young children to avoid risk of suffocation while sleeping.
I have used head lice treatments before and the hair was left dry and brittle. Will this happen with Quit Nits?
Quit Nits products will leave the hair soft and shiny just like a regular conditioner.
