Camp: the place where kids make lifelong memories, come home a little taller, a little dirtier… and sometimes, with a few uninvited guests.
Lice are incredibly common at sleepaway camps—kids sleep close, share brushes, helmets, pillows, and hoodies, and basically have nonstop head-to-head contact. That’s why post-camp is prime time for lice detection and prevention. The good news? You can arm yourself with knowledge, tools, and support so you’re not caught off guard
Hi! We’re Nikki and Nicole —
Two NYC moms who’ve been in the lice trenches and lived to tell the tale. When lice hit our own families, we were overwhelmed, frustrated, and frankly... creeped out. But what we didn’t expect was how hard it would be to find treatments that were safe, effective, and actually worked the first time.
That’s why we created Lice Mamas —
a modern lice removal clinic offering expert support, family-friendly products, and treatments that are chemical-free and backed by science.
Why Post-Camp Head Checks Are a Must
Even if your child isn’t scratching, lice can still be present—and undetected for weeks. By the time you do notice? It’s likely spread to siblings, friends, and family.
At Lice Mamas, we recommend every camper get a thorough head check within 24–72 hours of returning home. Our trained eyes (and pro tools) can spot nits and lice that are often missed.
What to Look For:
- Tiny white or yellowish oval-shaped nits stuck to the hair shaft (they don’t flick off easily)
- Live lice—small, brownish insects moving near the scalp
- Itching, especially behind the ears and at the nape of the neck (though not everyone itches!)
