The announcement of a lice (القمل) outbreak at school is often a source of stress for parents. Far from being a sign of poor hygiene, an infestation is simply a common inconvenience in children's community life. The itching and discomfort it causes require a quick and effective response. In Morocco, where family and school ties are strong, it is essential to have a reliable solution to treat the problem at its root and prevent its spread. The priority is to quickly relieve the child while cleansing the scalp in a gentle and respectful manner.
Fortunately, the era of aggressive and irritating treatments is over. Today, anti-lice treatments favor more natural formulas, often based on vegetable and essential oils, which act by mechanical action (asphyxiation) without resorting to neurotoxic insecticides. This approach is not only effective on lice and nits, but it is also gentler on children's sensitive scalps. The ideal care routine combines a curative treatment to eradicate the infestation and a preventive action, such as a repellent spray, to provide long-lasting protection for the hair and peace of mind for families.

How do I know if my child has lice?
The most common sign is frequent scratching of the head, especially behind the ears and at the nape of the neck. Inspect the hair section by section in good light: you might see adult lice (small gray insects) or nits (الصئبان), which are tiny oval eggs glued to the hair near the root.
Is a natural anti-lice treatment really effective?
Yes, modern natural treatments are very effective. They work through a physical mechanism, by suffocating lice and nits with vegetable oils, which prevents the development of resistance. They are an excellent, gentler alternative for a child's scalp.
What is the difference between a treatment and a repellent spray?
A treatment product (lotion, shampoo-mask) is curative: it is used to kill lice and nits during a confirmed infestation. A repellent spray (بخاخ طارد) is preventive: it is applied to healthy hair to prevent lice from settling, especially during an outbreak at school.
How do you properly use an anti-lice comb?
For maximum effectiveness, use the comb on damp, detangled hair with conditioner. Comb section by section, from the root to the tip. After each pass, carefully wipe the comb on a paper towel to remove the captured lice and nits.
Should a treatment be repeated a few days later?
Yes, it is strongly recommended to repeat the treatment 7 to 10 days after the first application. This helps to eliminate any young lice that may have hatched from nits that survived the first treatment, thus permanently breaking the parasite's life cycle.
What is the price of an anti-lice treatment in Morocco?
The price varies depending on the type of product and the brand. A treatment lotion is generally affordable. For a complete treatment, purchasing a pack (kit) that includes lotion, shampoo, and a comb is often the most economical and practical option to get rid of lice effectively.
