Nitrid Head Lice Treatment 120ml

Nitrid Head Lice Treatment 120ml is a pesticide-free spray designed to eradicate head lice and their eggs in adults and children aged 6 months and over. It works by physically suffocating lice and eggs rather than using insecticides, making it a practical choice for home treatment where a non-pesticide option is preferred. Retailer listings describe it as clinically proven and 100% effective against lice and eggs after the stated treatment time.

The treatment comes in an easy-to-use trigger spray bottle and is typically supplied with a nit comb to help remove lice and eggs after application. Current UK listings also describe the formula as having no unpleasant odour and no pesticides, helping make treatment easier for children and other users who may be sensitive to strongly scented products.

Nitrid is suitable for use on dry hair and is intended to be repeated after 7 days to help ensure complete treatment. This 120ml size is suitable for home use and can be used as part of a household head lice treatment routine when checking close contacts and family members.

Key features:

• Head lice and egg treatment spray
• Suitable for adults and children aged 6 months and over
• Pesticide-free formula
• Works by suffocating lice and eggs
• Clinically proven treatment
• Easy trigger spray application
• Comb included

Check all members of the household if one person has head lice, and treat as necessary. Cover clothing and shoulders with a towel. Spray the lotion generously onto dry hair, making sure the scalp and hair are fully covered. Massage the product into the hair from root to tip, paying particular attention behind the ears and at the back of the neck.

Leave the product on for the time stated on the pack. Current retailer listings describe the product as 100% effective after 10 minutes, although some newer “Ultra Once” listings mention a shorter claim for a newer formulation. For this standard 120ml Nitrid with Licerum pack, the safest listing wording is to follow the pack instructions and leave on for the stated treatment time before washing out.

After treatment:

• Shampoo the hair normally
• Shampoo again if needed to remove all of the lotion
• Use the nit comb to help remove dead lice and eggs
• Repeat the treatment after 7 days

General advice:

• Use only as directed on the pack
• Treat all affected household members where needed
