Q.Follow up house cleaning must be a tedious and time consuming process in order to fully insure that no re infestation occurs

A.False. Because head lice live only on the head and require a blood meal frequently each day to survive, they do not build nests in your closets, beds, drawers, etc. Your house cleaning requirements are very minimal and we implore you NOT to spend hours and dollars cleaning, “bombing” your house, throwing out bedding, doing endless loads of laundry. Bedding and clothing can be put in a dryer on high heat for 30 minutes. Vacuum if you must but we don’t insist. Cover your sofa with a blanket or sheet for 24 hours.
