Lice can hold their breath for up to 8 hours. This is why smothering methods, such as mayo and essential oil mixtures do not work. The most effective head lice treatment formulas work mechanically (not chemically) to get rid of lice and nits. These formulas are designed to break open the bugs' outer shells allowing the solution to eliminate the lice and nits.
