What types of lice do you treat?

We advise on all types: head lice, body lice, pubic lice, and bird lice. For bird lice we treat the premises (after bird nesting) and offer bird proofing. For head, body, and pubic lice we do not treat people — we advise on pharmacy or medical treatment and can treat premises where relevant.

Do you treat head lice?

We do not treat people for head lice. Head lice are best treated with pharmacy products (lotions, combs) and by washing bedding and avoiding shared items. We can advise on premises cleaning and when to repeat treatment so reinfestation is reduced.

What is bird lice and do you treat it?

Bird lice (or bird-associated mites) come from birds nesting in or on buildings. When birds leave, these parasites can move indoors and bite people. We remove or treat nest sites, apply premises treatment, and offer bird proofing so the problem does not return.

Do you treat body lice?

Body lice live in clothing and bedding. Washing all bedding and clothing at high heat is essential. We can treat premises where body lice are in the environment and advise on laundry and hygiene. We do not treat persons.

We advise on all lice types. For bird lice we treat the premises after nesting and offer bird proofing. For head and body lice we do not treat people — we advise on pharmacy treatment and can treat premises (bedding, environment) where relevant.

Identification

Head lice: nits (eggs) on hair, itching scalp; spread by head-to-head contact. Body lice: in clothing and bedding seams; itching. Bird lice: small parasites that move indoors after birds nest in roofs or eaves; bites after birds leave. We identify the type and advise or treat accordingly.

Why It Happens

Head lice spread by contact and shared items. Body lice thrive in unwashed clothing and bedding. Bird lice come from birds nesting in or on buildings; when birds leave, the parasites can move indoors. Bird proofing and nest removal prevent bird lice return.

Risks

Lice cause itching and discomfort. Head and body lice are not dangerous but are a nuisance; pharmacy treatment and hygiene clear them. Bird lice can bite when they move indoors; premises treatment and bird proofing resolve the source.
