Using Diatomaceous Earth is a very good idea for all the reasons mentioned by Craig, and yes, it is very effective against lice. We got a dog that had some kind of mange (a type of lice infestation) and used food grade DM on her. It did the trick beautifully, cheaply, and without any toxicity to her. And if you have any other goats or animals, I would put some DM on them also in case some lice migrated which could certainly be the case.
