resource during summer

Thanks for all the response! To be honest, I don't WANT to treat lice. I really don't want to be nit-picking all summer. Last summer, somehow, a girl got by our initial check and by the time we found her, towards the end of camp she had already spread the lice into at least two cabins. Her head was full of active lice and plenty of nits. It was thought that she came from home with it and had to have had them for awhile judging by the amount we found on her head. It just kind of irked me that the parents might have known and just decided to let us "deal" with the problem. I can make all the suggestions I want, but in the end it's up to the directors how they want to outline the protocol. Our camp is "pricey" , lice are a potential anywhere. I just recently attended a seminar for camp nurses and was told a great "natural" treatment. Vaseline the childs head and put them under a shower cap for 4 hours, shampoo with Prell shampoo, rinse with vinegar then comb out ALL the nits. The commercial lice preparations are just too toxic, I won't use them anymore. Hey, thanks again for responding. I'll try and write back with some more ideas and thoughts about camp nursing. Thanks!
