Breastfeeding and lice

Having just dealt with the little rotters in our breastfeeding family
myself, I can refer you to several websites that are useful. The first 2
give you plenty of instructions on using plain hair conditioner and a comb
as a very effective treatment, and in our own  family we found it far more
effective than any of the pesticides, which are over subject to resistance.
That should then keep breastfeeding intact, and keep my LACTNET post on
topic.
