LICE NOT A SIGN OF POOR HYGIENE

Catching head lice is not a sign of poor hygiene. It just means that one was unfortunate enough to get close to a source of lice. Lice do not hop or fly, but they do crawl from an infested person to someone else. Common ways to spread lice are by close contact during play and sleep overs, and sharing things such as hats, hairbrushes, towels and pillows.

Over-the-counter lice remedies are available; however, these treatments contain pesticides that can be harmful to your family.  In our treatment centers we have also found that lice have become resistant to the harmful chemicals in these products.  Our treatment at Lice Lifters is all natural and pesticide free.
