    well given the fact that mites are arachnids and lice are insects the lice killer may not work.

    Why do you have to wait a month? A week at best:

    Believe me Equate works, But so does Pam. I only use equate, because it works, never needed to try provent a mite. I swear by equate. They are chemically the same.

    Actually, they are not chemically the same. They share some of the same chemicals but not all.
