Mom in Nebraska

June 25th, 2009 — 12:35am

Hi everyone. I wanted to share a quick story about a mother in Nebraska. Her daughter came home with head lice about a week prior to us speaking. Like almost everyone I speak to, she immediately went to the local pharmacy and bought an over the counter head lice shampoo (I won’t mention the name, but most of you have probably tried it).

Of course it did not work. So she found us online and purchased the one person head lice pack. I got a call from her a few days later ordering the family pack. I asked her why she needed more. She explained to me that the lice shampoo worked great on her daughter, but she found out a few days later that the whole family had contracted head lice.

I am happy to report that when I spoke with her about a week later, the entire family was head lice free.

To mom in Nebraska, we are glad we could help…..

School Nurse orders clearlice to treat head lice in school

June 23rd, 2009 — 3:19am

Just before school ended we received an email from Shea Logan, R.N.
Moore County Schools’ Nurse. She told us that they were having a problem with head lice going around the school. She explained that the parents “just could not get rid of the lice”. They were trying everything and the lice would never completely go away. We sent her out the Clearlice package to give to some of the parents.

We spoke with her 2 weeks later and she was happy to say that Clearlice worked and the child that used it was lice free.

Shea is spreading the word to parents about Clearlice. Our goal this coming school year is to reduce the amount of head lice cases at the Moore county school district by 50%.

Lice and human origin

June 20th, 2009 — 8:00am

I read an interesting article today about how lice can be connected to the time period when people lost their body hair and started wearing clothing.

Here is 2 paragraphs from the article. And the link. I found it to be very informative and interesting.
Three kinds of louse call Homo sapiens their home, but each occupies a different niche on the human body. The head louse, Pediculus humanus, lives in the forest of fine hairs on the scalp. Its cousin, the body louse, lives not on the skin but in clothes. And the exclusive territory of the pubic louse, Phthirus pubis, is the coarser hairs of the crotch.

Lice are intimately adapted to their hosts and cannot long survive away from the body’s blood and warmth. If their host evolves into two species, the lice will do likewise. So biologists have long been puzzled over the fact that the human head louse is a sister species to the chimpanzee louse, but the pubic louse is closely related to the gorilla louse….

Head lice, Body lice, and Pubic lice comparison

June 18th, 2009 — 6:16pm

Are head lice, body lice and pubic lice the same?

The answer is no.

Although they are in the same family, they each have different appearences and different habbits.  Body lice and head lice look similar while pubic lice look much different.

Unlike head lice, body lice do not live on the human host.  They actually live in clothing and climb onto the body to feed.  Head lice and pubic lice live on the host.

Doctors and natural lice treatments

June 18th, 2009 — 6:11pm

We are trying to spread the word amongst Doctors abour Clearlice.  Every Doctor we have spoken to this past month is well aware of the risks and side effects of chemical based products.  I was very surprised to hear almost all of them say they wanted to put our product in their office or asked us to leave flyers in the waiting rooms.  I was surprised because I thought many doctors were from the old school of thought that you must use chemicals to treat head lice.

But each doctor knew that natural products were superior in every way.  They all knew about lice being resistant to chemicals.  It was really refreshing to experience this first hand.

head Lice Tip

June 18th, 2009 — 5:31am

Head lice can survive off a childs head for up to 2 days. The eggs (nits) take up to 10 days to hatch and will be real hungry and looking for a host.

When hairs fall of of the head into hats, brushes, and clothing, the lice will attach onto whomever it comes in contact with.

To avoid exposure to head lice, teach your children to not share brushes, combs, or hats with other children. This will greatly reduce the risk of infection.

The weather here in Florida is getting hotter and hotter each day. Today we hit about 94. In the middle of the afternoon, it feels like you are walking into an oven. But great beach weather.
