Frequently Asked Questions

  • The treatment process can last anywhere from 1-4 hours at most and in extreme cases or big families, the process can take slightly longer. We are very thorough so if it takes a little extra time to get every nit we will spend the necessary time to do so.

  • “Back before lunch” is our goal. Once treatment is complete your child is ready and clear to head back to school same-day. There’s no need to keep your child out of school for the whole day.

  • It is our policy that everyone in the household be checked. This ensures that everyone is clear and there is no re-exposure.

  • We do require a follow-up to ensure your 30 day lice free guarantee. The purpose of the follow-up is to make sure the treatment process is complete in its entirety and there are zero traces of nymphs or nits on that final visit.

  • You do not need to deep clean your home. Our technicians will walk you through the simple cleaning process which is much simpler than most believe to be.

  • No need to waste money. Simply clear the items of hair or debris and place in a zip-loc bag in the freezer overnight. They’ll be ready to use the next day.

  • As soon as your initial treatment is complete you and your family are safe to resume life as normal. You are no longer contagious.

  • Itchiness is very common after treatment because, just like mosquitoes, lice bite at the scalp and so those little bites will feel a little itchy once the lice are removed. We advise our families to NOT scratch their heads to avoid infection. The itchiness usually subsides after a few days.

  • Lice are a human only nuisance. So you don’t have to worry about your pets.
