What to Expect from Your Visit

Your technician arrives at your Thornton home and begins with a full-family screening for live lice and nits, since a case can pass between household members before anyone notices symptoms. Family members who need treatment are worked through our all-natural process: sectioned hair, a thorough oil application, careful combing with a professional nit comb, and once dry, hand-picking any remaining nits. This is the same physician-developed protocol LiceDoctors has refined for nearly 20 years, trusted by pediatricians and school nurses throughout the greater Denver area. Before she leaves, your technician gives you a simple aftercare plan.

FAQs of Head Lice in Thornton, CO

WHAT DO HEAD LICE LOOK LIKE?

Adult head lice are translucent and pale with a brown center, are about the size and shape of a sesame seed, have 6 legs, and no wings. Your Thornton, CO lice specialist will show you exactly what a nit looks like.

WHAT DO NITS (LICE EGGS) LOOK LIKE?

Nits are found glued to the hair root. They are oval in shape. They are also translucent, often appearing whitish on the hair, but brownish when placed against a white background. If they are close to the scalp (within about a quarter-inch) then they are likely still viable and will hatch, if they’re more than ⅓ inch from the scalp they are probably old eggshells, which do not fall off or wash out, but need to be removed with the rest of the eggs. Nits are easy to miss and that is where Thornton, CO parents find the most benefit from a professional service.

DOES LICE MEDICATION/HOT AIR KILL THE BUGS AND THE NITS?

There is an increasing immunity among lice in the Thornton area to the OTC lice shampoos and to prescription chemical lice treatments. These tough-to-kill lice are called “super lice”. In addition, medications kill virtually none of the nits. Hot air can dehydrate the bugs and nits, potentially leading to death. Professional devices claim a 92% kill rate, but there is no device proven to kill them all. Neither of these claim to be safe for everyone. Also, no chemical or hot air can remove the nits from the hairs, they still need to be combed and picked out ON TOP OF the treatment.
