Combating Lousiness 
For pubis: recommended as a spray by Heusne'r (it immobilizes 
the insects quickly which facilitates their removal). 
Expts 48-52: nits survive 10 minutes’ immersion. Expt 80: nits 
survive 15 minutes moistened therewith. Expt 239: nits resist 
vapour for 3 hrs. Expt 363: pubis killed by l|-3 minutes’ immer¬ 
sion, not less. 
The objections to xylol are its great inflammability, that it may 
produce considerable itching, and a painful exanthem (Pinkus); it 
is moreover very expensive at present.
