A lice infestation is no laughing matter. We are happy to provide a great lice removal service in Miami. That being said our experience shows us that many parents do not take the matter seriously. Of course, we will remove the lice from you and your children but sometimes that is not enough. At The Orange Cross we pride ourselves in giving you accurate information that is not based on fear and anxiety. This is why we have chosen to affiliate ourselves with The Shepherd Institute as they train and operate an honest, trustworthy, and accurate institution for the realities of head lice.
But let’s talk about the realities for a minute. If you remove the problem and learn how to properly prevent it the next time you will save time and money seeking out treatments and paying for services. While we are proud to offer the best family discounts in the region for treating multi family members you would be amazed at the amount of customers who choose to not have their entire family checked. It is simply amazing the amount of moms who say they don’t have it or cannot possibly have lice that actually do. To be realistic is is about 1/3 or approximately 30% of moms that actually also have head lice and especially if they have daughters under the age of 11 years old. Often brushes are shared or stories are read in bed at night during bedtime preparation and snuggle time. It’s important for every one to be checked or the problem with recur and your child will be sent home costing you another day out of work and time and/or money for additional lice treatments. Don’t get me wrong. We are happy to treat your family more than once a year if the problem recurs, after all it’s our business but ethically we want to make sure you get top service, know all the information and know how to prevent it from coming back. Unlike many lice removal companies we offer a free recheck within the first 7-10 days after the treatment in order to make sure we got it all and that you have not picked it up again from another family member. As you might imagine we guarantee our work but it is difficult to do so if every family member is not checked simultaneously. You would also be amazed at how many no shows we have for the complimentary recheck. We almost always get all the lice out but if all siblings and parents are not checked it can come back in a matter of days with close contact and particularly at bedtime. Basically you can think of the recheck as a from of Lice Insurance.
We’ll explain the best methods to prevent lice in the future from recurring and show you the best things to do to stop the bugs from getting back into your life. We also take great pride in offering the best incentives and discounts to have your whole family treated including free head checks to make sure everyone is lice free. So get out your calculator and add up the cost of missing more work (do it yourself products do not work efficiently), the time spent attempting a DIY job, and the time spent when it comes back or by not having every family member and care giver checked for lice to make sure you get it out of your head, home, and life by getting professional treatment and the proper advice so it does not come back.
