LiceBeaters was founded in 1996 to make home visits to help people control their head lice problems without the need to seek medical help from a doctor. Head lice are tiny crawling insects that live on the human scalp and are very annoying to deal with, along with being embarrassing. These insects survive by sucking small amounts of blood from the head of the host.
At LiceBeaters our treatment involves the use of an olive oil based treatment that is natural and does not involve the use of chemicals that may be harmful to the patient. Our natural treatment is effective and saves introducing unnecessary chemicals into the environment, along with exposing the patient to unnecessary harsh chemicals.
We have dealt with hundreds of cases of head lice and the first thing that you need to know is that with the correct treatment plan these annoying little insects are removed easily. Before we begin head lice treatment we check the host's head carefully to determine the extent of the problem and develop a treatment plan. This is an important step, because this will tell us what stage the head lice are primarily in at the time. For example, are there more nits than head lice, equal amount, or more head lice than nits?
We use bright lights to check the hair carefully from all directions because head lice nits (eggs) are very small and adhere to only one side of the hair shaft. Along with the bright light we use magnifying glasses to ensure that we locate and remove as many nits as possible prior to treatment.
Licebeaters recommends the two pronged approach to removing lice. First we remove all visible nits and live bugs from the hair. Next, we explain our olive oil treatment plan to you, step by step. We don't recommend that you waste your money on products that may not work and, don't recommend taking unnecessary risks using medicine that may jeopardize your children's safety. WE are not against prescription medicine but believe in using an equally effective, safe, all-natural approach to lice treatment on children and other loved ones!
We will make a follow up visit as necessary to ensure that our treatment plan is effective. We want to ensure that you are 100 % satisfied with our treatment and services. Our goal is that you and you loved ones do not have to endure these annoying head lice insects any longer than you need to.
