Lice Removal at School  – $55 an hour
When at least two of the trained volunteer head checkers are confident in their ability to identify nits correctly, we can, (with a parent or custodians written permission), provide our nit removal service for a child who would most benefit from this gentle and fun head lice removal service. It would be best if the parent was present, so they too could join in the fun and get screened, and get rid of the lice in their hair too. The PTA or another group could fund this service.

School Loan out Program  of  professional-grade nit removal Kits. (Kits vary in size. Please inquire)
It only makes sense to provide your parents with the tools so they can cure their children.

In home Nit Removal Service: $45 an hour, plus $7 a head for screening and supplies

School Lice Team Testimonials

“We are so happy with the head check training you provided our school. Much to my alarm, I learned that there have been many children I have sent home in the past whom I thought had nits but who actually did not have lice at all. Barbara, Diane and myself now feel confident to teach the other mothers how to tell the difference between the hair casts, DEC plugs and nits, and how to do a head check in a much more effective way.
Thanks again. ”
- Sarah Sandler, Toronto, Ontario, Canada

“I am extremely grateful for your training of our lice committee. We now feel confident in making a proper diagnosis, and learned a lot. The school parents are thrilled with your Lice Removal Kit loan out program. The mothers are reporting that it is much easier with those tools. With only 10 cases in over 400 students, we are going to be just fine this semester.”
- Denise Browning Thornhill, Ontario, Canada

Why Correct Nit Identification is Crucial

1. Here on Kauai: A medical doctor had a look at a 5 year old girl’s hair and didn’t really know for sure if the child had nits or not. ( The girl was so tiny. She must have weighed 40 pounds). However, even though he could not tell the difference and was unsure if they were nits or not, he prescribed the pesticide Kwell containing Lindane. The mother used it once or twice on her very small child and was exposed to it herself through her hands AS SHE DID NOT WEAR GLOVES WHEN APPLYING THE LINDANE AS SHE IS SUPPOSED TO DO.

I suggested to her that she cut off some hairs with the suspected nits and provide them to me. The ‘nits’ were not nits at all. (her samples on file)

2.
I had a 10 minute phone consultation with a woman over a year ago, who for five years had been in a war against ‘nits’ in her daughter’s hair.
She had been told five years ago, (at a school in Canada), that those white oval things attached to her daughter’s hair were nits – and they certainly would look that way to the untrained eye. So…
The woman had spent the first two years repeatedly applying the recommended head lice pesticides on her daughter and doing the nitpicking, washing, cleaning etc etc…
But still the nits persisted. So, for the last three years, she had switched to natural non-pesticidal lice treatments.

She had been in a living nightmare doing battle against head lice for 5 years, nitpicking, using pesticides repeatedly, and doing loads of laundry and linen changing, till she heard of LiceBusters.
I was able to ascertain in a couple of minutes,  that she had been misdiagnosed from the very start.
How did I reach that conclusion? Simple. In all those years, she had not once seen a head louse, nor had she seen a brown ‘nit’. End of her lice nightmare.

3. At the end of one of my presentations, a woman came up to me with her 7 year old girl, and showed me the nits in her daughter’s hair. They were not nits but DEC plugs.
She had been repeatedly been putting pesticides on the child’s head for 6 months.
