LCA Connecticut: Providing Fast Head Lice Treatment for College Students in CT and MA
While head lice is often associated with young children, it’s not uncommon for colleges in Connecticut and Massachusetts to experience infestations as well. Students living in dorms are in close proximity and often share or mistakenly use items of their roomies.
If there is a lice breakout, don’t panic. Head lice can be uncomfortable and a nuisance but it’s very treatable. With locations in West Hartford and Orange, LCA Connecticut has quickly helped students get rid of lice at colleges and universities throughout CT and MA including Hartford, Yale, Fairfield, UConn, Sacred Heart, Bridgeport, Springfield, Amherst, UMass, Mount Holyoke and others.
No need to worry about exhaustive combing or nasty chemicals. Our one-hour, one-visit treatment using our patented Air AirAllé device kills lice and eggs through dehydration. The device, which was invented by scientists at the University of Utah, kills lice and eggs through a specific combination of temperature, airflow, time and technique.

To help avoid lice:
- Don’t share items that touch the head such as hats, headphones, pillows, brushes and hoodies.
- Athletes should take extra precaution. Whether you’re a varsity player or joining a pick-up game, avoid sharing helmets, equipment and towels.
- Keep laundry separate – while lice don’t live for long on clothes, there’s no point in saving a few quarters at the risk of spreading lice.
And two key points to keep in mind:
- You and your roommates should be checked and get treatment if needed.
- Tell your floormates ! Head lice can happen to anyone – spread the word to stop further infestation
