What are lice?

Lice are tiny insects that live on human hair and feed on blood. They are common, especially in children, and can spread easily from person to person.

How do I know if I have lice?

The most common symptoms of lice include intense itching of the scalp and the feeling of something moving in the hair. You may also see small white eggs (called nits) on the hair.

How do lice spread?

Lice spread primarily through direct head-to-head contact. They can also spread through the sharing of combs, brushes, hats, and other personal items.

How many eggs does a female louse lay in a day?

A female louse, after a single mating, will remain fertile until her death, which typically occurs between 30 and 35 days. Within 24 hours of mating, the female will begin laying her eggs.

Each female louse will lay a clutch of 4 to 5 eggs, known as nits, twice a day until her death, which typically occurs about 20 days after reaching maturity. When laying eggs, the female louse excretes a fluid onto the nits that attaches them to the hair shafts. A healthy female will lay about 200 eggs in her lifetime.

How our lice removal service works?

Our services are provided by qualified and certified staff. The process begins with an
initial assessment to determine the severity of the infestation.

Next, we use safe and effective, eco-friendly products to eliminate lice and nits.

The treatment for head lice typically takes approximately 1 ½ to 2 hours per person to complete. The time may vary depending on the length/thickness of the hair along with the degree of infestation.

Our process

  1. We start by inspecting the hair for lice and nits. We use a magnifying glass and a
    fine-toothed comb to identify any lice or nits.

  2. Once we have determined the severity of the infestation, we will recommend the
    best treatment.

  3. We will then begin the treatment. We will use the treatment method that we have
    recommended, and we will be sure to follow all safety precautions.

  4. After the treatment is complete, we will provide you with instructions on how to
    prevent a re-infestation. This may include washing bedding, clothing, and other
    items that may have come into contact with the infested person
