My middle daughter suffered from a dreadful fungus on her scalp from putting her thick hair in a bun while wet. After fussing about that (and realizing I still had to get rid of my teen’s fungal scalp...) I sprayed a mixture of Lavender and water on her DRY (note: that part is very important) scalp every night while her hair was loose for sleep. Within two weeks the large flakes stuck in her hair was gone along with the “pimples” that plagued her. I had no idea that the pimple like blisters were a part of the fungus issue.
So glad I could fix this without the horrid side effects of antifungal oral meds.

Oil of Thyme does well. It is usually called “Thymol” on the ingredients list of common household products and OTC preparations.

I use tea-tree oil as a general anti-fungal and anti-biotic. None of the offpsring has had an ear infection since we started using it.
