About head lice
(head lice facts)
Head lice infestations are a common medical condition known clinically as “Pediculosis.” It is estimated that there are 6 to 12 million annual cases of head lice in the U.S. and over 200 million globally; eighty percent of the cases occur in children.
Over the last 5 to 10 years, head lice infestations have increased dramatically in many regions of the world because lice have evolved widespread genetic resistance to the pesticides found in many traditional over-the-counter and prescription treatment products.
Even lice with genetic resistance to pesticides are no match for The LouseBuster™ device. Our solution relies on controlled heated air, and it is extremely unlikely that lice will evolve resistance to the LouseBuster™ head lice treatment in the future.
