Lice are a human parasite. They live on human heads ONLY. They do not live in your furniture, in your carpets or on your pets.
Lice cannot survive off of the human head for more than 24 to 48 hours. They are in essence like a fish out of water. The minute they leave a human head they become compromised and begin to die.
Lice cannot jump, swim or fly.

Lice can lay up to ten eggs a day. When a louse enters a new host…They immediately lay at least three nits one of which will always be a male…so the lifecycle continues. The eggs need your head to hatch. Once an egg is no longer on a human head it will NEVER hatch.
The pesticides currently on the market are only 40% effective after two treatments and have been linked to various health issues. The Lice Lifters treatment is all-natural and chemically free.

Your children will be exposed to lice. The best way to avoid a family infestation is to do weekly head checks on your children with a professional lice comb. If you catch it early, it will help ensure that it does not spread through your entire family.
