No idea where the lice came from, but Melanie did a FANTASTIC job with my treatment. Professional, knowledgeable, clean, and gentle process. I was able to schedule an appointment almost immediately, and now I'm good to go!
Karen Harrington
Professional , swift and effective ! The Lice Charmers offered two options for treatment and explained everything clearly. Thank you for helping to make a bummer situation as smooth as possible. Hope to never see you again 😉

I can’t say enough good things about Margaret and the amazing service we received! She was professional, reassuring, and incredibly knowledgeable. Lice can be such a stressful experience for any family but Margaret made the whole process calm and easy. The service was definitely on the pricier side, but honestly, the peace of mind and quality of care made it worth it. If you want the job done right the first time, I’d absolutely recommend them.

I called Lice Charmers this morning after receiving a call that a teacher had seen a bug on my kindergartener’s head. Margaret showed up at my house just after 5pm and fixed us all up. She checked each of us for active bugs, oiled up our heads, and heat-treated and combed the two of us who needed it. By 7:30pm, the whole family was lice free!
This was so far from the lice removal of my youth… no smelly chemicals, no yelling mom, no screaming kid. Thee process was fairly pleasant, and the advice about how to deal with the rest of the house was helpful and reassuring.
Lice Charmers offers a priceless service, and I hope to never have to call them again.
Brian Riva
What a great experience with Jamiee. My son felt so comfortable and relaxed. I recommend anyone that unfortunately has to take care of lice issues to go to Jamiee.
Steve-n-Heidi Gerke
I was able to get in the same day I called, and Melanie made me feel comfortable & was very informative!
Jennifer Gold
I wish no one has to deal with lice but I am so thankful Lice Charmers was there to help my family! This is my 3rd time using their service (1st time going to the clinic) but they were able to squeeze the family of 6 the same day I called for 2 different time spots. Margaret and Melanie were both so kind and made the process go as quickly as possible. Highly recommended!
Vanessa Rich
This was the best money ever spent. Margaret was super thorough, knowledgeable, and so pleasant. She kept my girls calm and happy and we left confident that everyone is lice free!
Amanda Peden
Margaret and Lice Charmers made what could have been an awful experience easy and even light hearted at times. Margaret was so kind and warm and nice to talk to, the treatment was straightforward and painless and we left with peace of mind. So appreciative of Lice Charmers!
M. Allison
Melanie and Marginy were knowledgeable and patient while they treated and checked our whole family. Their space was very clean and organized, and treatment methods very thorough. Peace of mind is worth the price we paid!
Jennifer Gold
It’s been almost a week since we had our treatments. So far we don’t see any evidence of lice!! The technician was so sweet with my kids and she got through my long, thick hair faster than I expected. I hope I never have to have lice treatment service again, but if I have to, I would definitely ask them again!!

  • Thinking it’s gone while it continues to spread.

  • Not getting everyone checked.

  • Overlooking the cost of missing school, childcare, or work.

  • Deciding to DIY without knowing what it takes to ensure it’s gone.
