Sarah has lice again. She got it at summer camp and we have treated it 3 times now. Today I decided not to use the chemical shampoos. I’ve used them 2 times without effect. Today I crushed garlic and made a paste with lemon juice and tea tree oil and hair conditioner. I messaged that into her hair, Nicole’s hair and my hair. Washed it out after one hour. And finally used the lice comb. We have smelly heads! I'm not sure Nicole and I had lice, we just wanted to play it safe! We had house guests but they packed up and left. I'm not sure if it was the lice that drove them away? Maybe it was just a coincidence? We have to repeat the garlic treatment in 10 days. Oh the joy of being a Mom!
Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.
