How to use Neem oil for lice?

Prepare a neem oil mixture: mix pure neem oil with a carrier oil such as coconut or olive oil in a ratio of 1 part neem oil to 10 parts carrier oil. Apply the mixture to the scalp: gently massage the neem oil mixture into the scalp to cover the entire scalp and hair roots. Pay particular attention to areas where lice and nits (lice eggs) are most often found, such as the back of the neck and behind the ears. Cover your head: cover your head with a shower cap or wrap it with a towel to prevent the neem oil mixture from staying in place and staining fabrics: leave the neem oil mixture on your scalp and hair overnight. This will give the oil enough time to suffocate the lice and disrupt their life cycle: in the morning, comb the hair thoroughly with a fine-toothed comb to remove the dead lice. Start at the roots and comb all the way to the ends. After each stroke, wipe the comb with a paper towel or rinse with warm soapy water to prevent re-infestation. Shampoo and rinse: Thoroughly shampoo your hair with a mild shampoo to remove neem oil and any remaining lice. Repeat treatment: Repeat the neem oil treatment and combing every 5-7 days for a few weeks to completely eradicate lice. This helps to eradicate newly hatched lice that may have survived the first treatment. Take preventive measures: to avoid re-infestation, wash bed linen, clothes and personal items that may have come into contact with lice in hot water and dry them at high temperatures. Vacuum up upholstered furniture and car seats, and seal non-washable items in plastic bags for a few weeks.It is important to note that although neem oil can be an effective natural remedy for head lice, it will not eliminate all lice in one treatment. If the infestation persists or becomes severe, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional or licensed pharmacist for further advice and treatment options.

Can you leave Neem oil overnight?
