Why choose us in Bessemer, AL for head lice removal?

What is the value of in-home lice service? Having a technician come discreetly to your home is completely private. Lice is a normal part of childhood and nothing to be ashamed of, but we’re still betting your teenagers don’t want it advertised to the whole neighborhood. In-home service minimizes the stress of getting the whole family bundled into the car to go to a lice center in Birmingham, and saves you time in traffic. We help to keep your day on-track; when each child is finished being checked and treated, they can get back to homework or go off to football practice while we work on the rest of the family. The youngest kids can take frequent breaks, so they don’t get antsy, while we work on another family member. And importantly, your family members WITHOUT lice won’t be exposed to a whole room full of people who DO have lice, like they would be at a lice clinic in Bessemer.

With all of the convenience, most parents assume that in-home lice treatment in Bessemer will cost more than going to a lice clinic. Fortunately, the opposite is true. Think about it: no brick-and-mortar overhead allows us to pass those savings on to you. Lice clinics charge around $175-$200 per person treated, which often works out to $700-$800 for a family of 4. LiceDoctors charges an hourly rate for the whole family. Because we can typically treat heads with mild, early cases very quickly, an hourly rate is going to save you a ton of money for those cases. And whereas you may only SEE lice or nits on one child, keep in mind that, by the time those nits are visible, the rest of the family has been exposed for at least a week. More than half of the time, the lice technician will discover a case of lice on another family member who seemed fine.

Bessemer, AL FAQs

IS THIS LICE OR DANDRUFF OR SOMETHING ELSE?

A flaky scalp is not a symptom of lice, but flaking and irritation can occur as a reaction to some types of chemical lice treatment. The easiest way to determine if what you're looking at is a nit is to pull it off the hair, place it on a white piece of paper, take a photo on macro mode, and zoom in. Dandruff and other hair secretions will blend in, but a nit will look darker than the white paper, or have a clearly-defined border. Here are some tips to help determine what you’re finding. A thorough wash and dry of the hair will cause dandruff to temporarily abate, but nits will remain unaffected. If you want a professional check for your family, we can set that up for you at your home in Bessemer, Alabama.

CAN I GET MY OWN HEAD CHECKED WHILE YOU’RE HERE TO TREAT MY KIDS?

Yes! We highly recommend checking everyone who lives with the affected child. Head checks for every head are included with your hourly rate for treatment. Our special fine-tooth-comb checks can detect a case of lice weeks before it is itchy or readily visible. You can rest assured your whole family is taken care of; we guarantee it.

WILL LICEDOCTORS TEACH ME HOW TO CLEAN MY HOUSE AFTER LICE TREATMENT?

Yes, your child can get lice at the local pool but only if she or he is next to another person who has lice. Lice do not have the ability to swim. It is important to know, though, that chlorine will not kill lice.The only good news about head lice is, once they fall off of a person, they have an expiration date. Unlike other types of lice, they don't ever infest homes or belongings. During your lice removal appointment, your Bessemer, AL lice specialist will teach you a simple and safe aftercare plan to lice-proof the people, so the problem will clear out of the home WITHOUT any special cleaning, laundry, pesticides, bagging, or disposal of items. Here's a more detailed explanation, if you're curious.
