Unfortunately, lice have invaded our lives. Just wondering if anybody has used texas lice squad for removing lice? I have never dealt with it before and just feel better having someone who knows what they are doing do it for me!

Yes!! My family and I live in the Dallas area and we went to the Texas Lice Squad after I dealt with lice for 2 months (I was on the verge of a serious breakdown!!) and we LOVE them! The staff is so professional and kind, my girls absolutely adored them. They work fast and are efficient. You don't have to treat them again at home either, they do it all in just one visit and a follow up. The Texas Lice Squad just takes all of the stress away; they treat the hair for you, educate you on what you should do at home (which is hardly anything at all), and show you what to do at home to prevent lice in the future. Another HUGE plus for me is that they don't use any pesticides or chemicals, everything is completely natural which is great because I have a 3 year old who also had it. Good luck to you and your family in your lice battle, I hope this helped!

Very sorry you gotta deal with that but when youve got children, lice and other pests are inevitable.

Dont know what Texas Lice Squad is but my kid had lice a couple years ago and the key to getting rid of them was staying on top of washing with medicated shampoo, combing the hair with disposable plastic combs, and washing clothing and bedding with hot water/soap every day. Took about two weeks of non stop work and diligence but we have never had another problem with those.

I'm sure we will face something different when he goes back to school.

Good luck to you.

Don't waste your time - go with Texas lice squad or equivalent. Well worth it. I've also heard that neem oil helps

My kids have never had them, but some friends' kids have several times, and it seems they were spreading through the schools again and again (north Austin and RR area.)

Never heard of Natroba, but we have been using Sklice, $50 co-pay after insurance. Unfortunately, my daughter is currently afflicted for the fourth go-round. We think she caught it from a hair salon down the street this time. Came here looking for info on how to report them.
