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.

We use our hands and a special comb designed to scrape head lice nits from the shaft of a human hair. Once we have determined that we have removed all the head lice nits and head lice that we can, we begin our two step treatment plan. The first treatment is the use of a specially designed olive oil based product that we developed and has proven hundreds of times to naturally kill and remove head lice. The use of harsh chemicals is not necessary with our proven natural treatment plan. We provide detailed instructions regarding how to continue cleaning the host's hair and any household items that may have come in contact with the host. Although this may be time consuming to clean or dispose of household items, it is necessary to ensure that the head lice infestation is eradicated. 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.
