Head Lice & Nit Treatment
Who can be Infested
Head lice infestation is most common all children, and family members can also be infested.
Head lice crawl, they cannot jump or fly, and they spread by direct contact with an infested person’s hair.
Who can be Infected
- Tickling or tingling sensation of something moving around in the hair.
- Itching, caused by an allergic reaction to louse bites.
- Irritability and difficulty sleeping; head lice are most active in the dark.
- Sores to the scalp caused by scratching. These sores can sometimes become infected by bacteria present on the person’s skin.
Head Check
- Like any other treatment process, we need to start with a diagnosis to verify that lice are, in fact, the problem afflicting you or your child.
