Kids head off to camp filled with excitement, ready to make friends and enjoy new experiences. But lice is one thing you hope they don’t pick up while they’re away. Just the word itself is enough to fill anyone with scalp-tingling anxiety.
The insidious pests seem to cause panic in even the calmest individuals, explains Ms. Silvia, who spent years as a sleepaway camp technician, where she learned how to successfully manage and treat head lice.
Knowing the stress the condition induces, Ms.Silvia Guanoluisa founded Lice In Sight® a mobile lice removal service, specializing in non-toxic, chemical-free head lice removal services. How does Silvia rid your hair of bugs and eggs without harsh treatments? She and her staff of trained technicians perform screenings and comb-throughs until they are 100 percent certain every louse and nit has been removed from the hair and scalp.
“I always say lice brings out the crazy in people,” Silvia says. "When I arrive at your homes and see they are very anxious, we try to reassure them and make them comfortable.”
Over the next weeks, Silvia says she and her team of expert “nitpickers” will comb through the heads of more than one hundred children who are headed to summer camp.
Having a pre-camp screening is a great way to remove a child’s fear and anxiety as he or she waits in line for the inevitable on-campsite lice check.
“They get so nervous and worked up and for the ones who do have lice, they have the added fear that no one will want to befriend them,” she says. “All that can be avoided with a pre-camp screening.”
Recognizing that people want peace of mind and to be rid of the parasites as soon as possible, Silvia offers flexible same-day appointments, available seven days a week. Flat rates are as follows:
Checks
$55 individual screening
$150 family screening
Complete Comb-Through and Removal
$165 short hair
$235 medium-length hair
$260 shoulder-length or longer
Post-Treatment
$27 Lice Remover Shampoo
$27 Lice Remover Conditioner
$15 Lice Comb
After the treatment, you have to follow the post-treatment instructions for 2 weeks, every other day wash the hair with the lice remover shampoo and the lice remover conditioner, I will come back in 2 weeks for the follow-up. If the instructions are not followed a reinfestation is likely to occur. This is part of the service you don't have to pay.
There are no additional fees for evening or weekend appointments.
Silvia says clients appreciate the flat, fixed rate and are assured when she and her staff say they will continue working until every bug and egg is removed regardless of how long that might take.
“I’ve been here some nights until 1 a.m. People appreciate that we don’t charge by the hour. They’re not watching the clock. As part of our quality control."
At the end of the summer, many camps screen campers before sending them home. They understand how rampant lice can be and don't want to take risks. The problem is that the screenings are quick and many mistakes are made at camp. Call us to make an appointment and avoid bringing your camper into your home with lice.
"Lice In Sight’s post-camp screenings are also popular", says Silvia who has hundreds of appointments booked for late August. Adding peace of mind, the service is 100 percent guaranteed.
“There’s something about it that brings out the hysteria in people,” says Silvia. “It’s contagious yet there’s no rhyme or reason to who gets it. We’ve even seen the bugs in wigs and toupees.”
As always, if you think you see nits and or lice, call us and we will gladly look at whatever you have and let you know definitively if it's lice/nits or just some other junk that you found in your child's hair, such as dandruff, mulch, and a host of other things.
