Cant really see the lamp in the pic....but we used kero lamps years ago, the kero soaked up through a wick and burned, safe as long as you know what your doing with it.....

 

Back in my last life, when i had kids at school it was the only thing that would succesfully get rid of head lice....just dampen the ends of your fingers with the kero and rub it into the hair and scalp, do a small patch first to see if it burns them, if not repeat all over the head...
G.F sister and kids are here and the kids have a few, not many, and i know the kero would work better than anything u can buy over the counter...........

 

Well we buy what is called Gas More like Paraffin than "Kerosine" from the Larger Gas Stations. seperate Tanks at the Back where they do the 2T mixtures.
