Fantus and Cornbleet. Therapy of parasitic dermatoses. (J. At. T. Ass. V. 108, No. 7, 1937)
Head lice. a) The purest and therefore the most common remedy for killing head lice is a solution of mercuric chloride in diluted alcohol 1: 500. They need to wet their scalp and hair 2 times a day for several days in a row. The disadvantage of this solution is that it causes an unpleasant burning sensation when it gets on excoriated places, b) Greasing the head with oil. While lice do not drown in water, they can be drowned in oil. For this purpose, the head is covered with a thick layer of petrolatum and tied tightly with a towel overnight. In the morning, petrolatum is removed with liquid vegetable oil and washed off with hot water and soap.
