Lice are meant to live on the human head, not on pillows, bedding, or furniture. If a louse falls onto a pillow, it usually cannot survive long without a human host. For peace of mind, you can wash pillowcases, sheets, and recently worn clothing, but there is no need for extreme house cleaning.
The most effective way to get rid of lice is to remove the lice, nymphs, and nits from the hair. Our treatment uses safe, pesticide-free products and a thorough manual comb-out with a professional-grade nit comb. Careful removal and proper follow-up are what help break the lice life cycle.
Insurance coverage varies by plan, so you should check directly with your provider. Many families may be able to use HSA or FSA benefits for lice treatment or lice removal products. We recommend asking your insurance provider what documentation may be needed for reimbursement.
Lice usually do not go away on their own if live lice or viable nits remain in the hair. When lice are left untreated, the cycle can continue as nits hatch and mature. Treating the problem early helps reduce stress and makes the infestation easier to manage.
The only sure way to confirm lice is to find live lice or nits attached to the hair shaft. Common signs include scalp itching, a rash behind the ears or near the neck, or small sesame-seed-sized bugs in the hair. Since dandruff and product buildup can look similar, a professional lice screening can help you know for sure.
There is no shortcut we recommend over thorough lice and nit removal. Our treatment uses non-toxic, pesticide-free products to help with the comb-out, but the key step is manually removing lice and nits from the hair. This is the safest, most reliable way to address an active infestation.
No. Head lice live on people, not in your home. Washing pillowcases, sheets, and recently worn clothing is enough for peace of mind. You do not need pesticide sprays, home sanitizing services, or weeks of bagging household items.
Yes. Not everyone with lice has an itchy scalp, so screening the whole family is the best way to know who needs treatment. Our in-home lice removal service checks family members quickly and accurately so you avoid both missed cases and unnecessary treatment.
Good follow-up is the best way to prevent lice from returning. We teach families how to comb, screen, and spot signs of lice after treatment. Pulling long hair back, avoiding head-to-head contact, and using regular checks can also help reduce the risk of re-infestation.

“We wasted hundreds of dollars on potentially toxic solutions first, but now have the peace of mind knowing that we are doing a safe, thorough job of eliminating lice”. I will be passing along your information to both our children’s schools and camp because there’s a need to improve screening at both.
Having been dealing with this annoying problem for the last month I finally threw my hands up and decided to call in the professionals. They were at my house within an hour and completely put my mind at ease. They taught me everything I needed to do with my house and how to prevent us from getting it again in the future. If you have been battling head lice like I was do not worry- call Lice Happens! They are so knowledgeable, professional and my kids loved them. Amazing service!
I just ordered another bottle of the lice repellant spray for our use, and a bottle for a friend. Although I feel that I have a handle on my critter phobia, I’d rather be safe than sorry. Or lousy.
Again, thank you so much!

Peter was amazing! I am visiting from Australia and was in a total panic. He arrived at my hotel room exactly on time and was so reassuring and lovely. What a pleasure, the experience was as easy and simple as it possibly could be!
Peter was amazing! It was my first time as a parent dealing with lice and I was very panicked. I called the service and he picked up within a couple minutes, calmed me down and was at our apartment in Manhattan by 10am. He had a very deep understanding of lice (who knew!) and did a thorough job of making sure they had all been removed and explaining the follow up. I could not recommend enough! Thank you!
