My daughters got a case once, and the readily available stuff worked likkedy-split. Just remember to launder all clothing and bedding.

Then I homeschooled. A lot fewer health problems as a result. Their brains were protected, too.

Lime, as in agricultural lime...white powder...mix to a gooey paste with water and apply, as with toothpaste. Leave in to make a fashion statement. If kids are into piercing their faces, no problem being a cement-head: your kids can be way ahead of the curve on this.
