Worn-out Tractor and Auto Oil for Hog Lice
Hog lice are common and indicated by yellow eggs on the neck. A home remedy from Iowa State College suggests using refuse tractor or automobile oil to eradicate lice. An oiling method can be set up with burlap and a post to soak the oil, and oil sprinkled on floors helps reduce both lice and dust. The key is to combine oil and lice, with varying effort.
