What is Naughty Nits?

The Naughty Nits product line is your all-round, safe and natural option for the eradication and prevention of lice.

Just talking about lice and nits is enough to make you feel all itchy and produce that ‘icky’ feeling, but recurring infestation with head lice is extremely common, particularly during the early school years. Lice can be extremely difficult to eradicate, and often one or two lice are missed during shampooing and household cleaning.

Repeated exposure to the dangerous chemicals in over the counter treatments and lice shampoos can be more harmful to your child than to the lice themselves, not to mention the fact that the lice are becoming increasingly resistant to these chemicals. Luckily Native Remedies is there to help control and prevent lice naturally!

The herbal and aromatherapeutic ingredients in our Naughty Nits products are 100% safe and natural and contain no toxic chemicals. This means that you can confidently and safely use these products on your child as often as you need to.

Working together safely and synergistically:

• Naughty Nits Shampoo will help to eradicate lice and nits from your child’s hair.
• Naughty Nits Hair Oil will prevent re-infestation and will help to loosen and remove nits.

More information on these natural ingredients

• Azadirachta indica (Neem) originates from the Bay of Bengal and is a highly prized Ayurvedic herb used to protect people from insect pests. The natural insecticidal properties are due to the component Azadirachtin A which affects the feeding, developmental, and reproductive processes of the insects. In addition, the anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties of Azadirachta make it an ideal natural remedy for pesky infestations. Not surprising then that the wood is highly valued for its worm resistant properties!
• Rosmarinus officinalis (Rosemary) is a native Mediterranean shrub that is now cultivated widely elsewhere. The strong fragrance of Rosemary makes it a natural insect repellent, and the oil is well known to smother and suffocate pests. Rosemary not only stimulates hair follicles to promote healthy hair growth, but is also a nourishing conditioner and tonic for the hair itself, leaving the strands soft and silky and easy to comb.
• Lavender is one of the most popular herbs with a wide variety of uses. Lavender has been used since Roman Times as a bath additive, and it is not surprising that it derives its name from the French word ‘lavare’ meaning ‘to wash’. Aside from its wonderful fragrance, Lavender is a well known cleansing herb with natural antiseptic and insect repelling properties. The soothing and calming effects of lavender will help to settle anxiety and distress.
• Melaleuca alternifolia (Tea Tree Oil) contains a large number of active constituents which have well known antiseptic and insecticide properties. One of Tea Tree Oil’s most powerful properties is its ability to ward off and repel parasites, including head lice. Not only will Tea Tree Oil repel and smother the lice, but it will also cleanse the bites and help the body to resist secondary infection.
• Pelargonium Graveolens (Rose Geranium) is native to South Africa, but is now cultivated in the Mediterranean region, Africa, Asia and Europe. Pelargonium owes its powerful insect repellent qualities to its rich content of Citronella oils. In addition, Pelargonium has well known antiseptic properties and will impart a beautiful orange-rose fragrance to the product.

These essential oils not only safely repel and smother the lice, but also loosen the nits from the hair shaft, allowing them to be combed out using a fine toothed nit comb.
