Meticulice Information

Established in 2011. We take lice removal seriously, and with the Shepherd Method ™, there are no shortcuts, just successful removal of head lice and nits. The initial head check is done prior to the treatment process to determine if there is any evidence of lice and nits. If evidence is found, the client is informed and treatment begins. We strongly recommend that all immediate family members and caregivers be examined as soon as possible to determine if they have evidence of lice as well.We provide one follow-up head check within 2 and 7 days after the initial treatment. This follow-up appointment is essential in order to ensure that re-contact has not occurred, as very often clients return to the environment in which they were first exposed to lice. Our guarantee cannot be honored should this re-check appointment be missed. The re-check is completed within 20 to 30 minutes. We also offer home cleaning services with specially trained personnel, which can help to alleviate a great deal of stress durin Meticulice, a certified head lice removal, prevention, screening and educational service, was born following my family's own experience with head lice. One afternoon, my daughter came home from camp with head lice and later I discovered that I had them too! It was frightening, and we wanted to rid ourselves of this problem immediately, but the information available about combating it was confusing and sometimes contradictory. Even our family physician had no one to refer us to for help. Using the conventional methods and products didn't work. Frustrated, I decided to travel some distance to a Shepherd Method™ service and found the support and education our family needed. And then I thought: our area of Suffolk County badly needs a service that would not only help individual families by ridding them of lice with proven methods and non-toxic products, but could also conduct low-cost screenings and educate school organizations, day care centers, camps and parent groups about head lice.
