LiceDoctors: And the Nits Keep Coming

VERO BEACH, Fla. - July 15, 2016 - PRLog -- What is going on in the lice world? If you are a parent with young children, you have likely either personally dealt with lice or have friends whose families have had it. July through September are peak months for head lice.

According to Wendy Beck of LiceDoctors Lice Treatment Service there is a triple whammy at play that is behind the rise of lice in these months."First, you have the summer months where children are at camp or on playdates and play together in close contact. Lice are conveyed by head to head contact and this type of play is ideal for the transmission of lice. Second, is the growing resistence among head lice to chemical lice treatments. A major study at the University of Southern Illinois showed that resistent lice are found is several states across the U.S.  Third, is that the growing leniency of schools with respect to lice policies has likely contributed to the increased incidence. Children with nits are permitted to remain in school. The problem is that while nits are not contagious, if the parent is treating the child with chemicals, which are often ineffective, those nits will hatch and mature and then spread to somone else."

What is a parent to do?  Lillian G. in Port St. Lucie says, "I tried all of the chemicals that the store had to offer. When those didn't work, I called my doctor. He prescribed a chemical which worked for awhile then I found more lice. Ultimately, several dollars poorer and a lot more frustrated, I heard about professionl lice treatment services. They guarantee their work so I figurered, I had more to gain than lose. I called LiceDoctors and they came to my house, used oil and combed and handpicked and I have not seen a louse or nit in weeks. This lice problem is no joke. It can wreak havoc in families for weeks or even months. Believe me, more than one parent has been reduced to tears over head lice."

Beck confirms that head lice can be very upsetting for families. While it is commonplace, if you don't know how to get rid of the case, it is time-consuming and frustrating. All the while, you usually have itchy family members who sometimes feels isolated because they are contagious. Also families often waste a lot of money on treatments that just don't work.
