Lice was reported at my child's Dublin school, how do I check for it at home?

Part your child's hair in sections under good light and look close to the scalp for small eggs (nits) attached to the hair shaft, or moving lice. Nits are often easier to spot than live lice. They look like small white or yellowish-brown specks and do not brush off like dandruff. That said, home checks miss a significant number of cases. A professional screening at our Dublin clinic removes the uncertainty, and the fee is waived if treatment follows.

Should we do a deep clean of the house once someone has lice?

Extensive cleaning is not necessary. Lice cannot survive for long away from the scalp, so furniture, carpets, and hard surfaces are not a meaningful concern. Our technicians give Dublin families specific, targeted aftercare steps that are actually helpful, and help them skip the unnecessary ones.

Why do lice keep coming back even after we've treated twice?

Lice eggs. If any eggs survive a home treatment, they hatch within a week or two and the cycle starts over. Many Dublin families dealing with recurring cases have been caught in exactly this loop. The AirAllé device eliminates both lice and eggs in a single session using controlled warm air, which is why the re-treatment rate is less than 1%.

How long is the appointment, and can we do it after school?

The Signature treatment takes about 60 to 90 minutes total. The Dublin clinic is open daily, including evenings on weekdays, which accommodates after-school scheduling. Same-day availability depends on the schedule, call or book online as early in the day as possible to maximize options.

Do you offer a Lice Protection Plan?

Yes, Lice Clinics of America - Dublin offers a monthly Lice Protection Plan. The plan runs $10 per month and includes one optional free head screening per month plus up to two free Signature AirAllé treatments per year. For Dublin families with multiple school-age children in a busy district, it is a straightforward way to stay ahead of recurrence without paying full treatment cost each time lice come home from school.
