🎄 Angel Tree for Seniors – Scotia Bank Napanee 🎄

If you’re looking to give a little extra this Christmas, please consider stopping by Scotia Bank in Napanee and choosing a tag from their Angel Tree for Seniors.

The number one thing requested on these tags is toiletries — a reminder that many of the seniors in our own community are struggling with even the most basic necessities. Many don’t have family to support them, especially during this time of year.

✨ Your small act of kindness can make someone’s season so much brighter.
If you’re able, pick a tag, fulfill a wish, and help spread a little love to those who need it most. ❤️

🧼✨ Tips to Stay Lice-Free This Season! ✨🧼
Keeping lice away doesn’t have to be stressful — a few simple habits go a long way!

👀 1. Do weekly head checks
Make it part of your routine! A quick check every Sunday helps catch lice early before they spread or become a bigger issue.

🧴 2. Keep hair tied back
Braids, buns, or ponytails help reduce hair-to-hair contact — especially in busy classrooms.

🎒 3. Avoid sharing personal items
Hats, brushes, hoodies, headphones… cozy, but not for sharing!

🧪 4. Use a preventative spray
A light daily spritz on the way out the door can add extra protection.

🧹 5. Be mindful after playdates & sleepovers
A quick check afterward can stop lice in their tracks.

If you ever spot anything suspicious or need help, Nit Pickers Co. is here.
Professional, gentle, and nurse-led — because peace of mind matters. 💛

🦠 Where do lice actually come from? 🤔

Lice don’t come from dirty homes, poor hygiene, or pets — they’ve been around forever and ONLY live on humans 👱‍♀️👱‍♂️.

They spread through head-to-head contact:
👧 Playdates
📚 School
🤳 Selfies
🤼 Sports
🛋️ Snuggling on the couch

Lice can’t fly or jump — they just crawl from one head to another. They don’t come from the environment, and they definitely don’t come from animals 🐶❌.

If lice pop up in your home, it’s simply because they were passed along through normal everyday contact — nothing to be embarrassed about and nothing to do with hygiene 💛🧼✨

🪮🐛 Lice Facts Every Parent Should Know 👩‍👧‍👦✨

💡 Not about cleanliness! Anyone can get lice—clean hair, dirty hair, doesn’t matter.

🔎 Check the hotspots: Behind the ears + the nape of the neck are lice’s favorite hangouts.

🥚 Nits vs. dandruff: Nits stick to the hair shaft and don’t brush off easily, while dandruff flakes away.

🪰 They don’t fly or jump! Lice spread through head-to-head contact, not from pets or the couch.

🧴 Treatments take time: One treatment isn’t usually enough. Always follow up with a second round + lots of combing.

👧➡️👦 Sharing isn’t caring (with lice): No swapping hats, brushes, or headphones.

🧬 Know the Enemy: The Lice Life Cycle 🧬

Understanding how lice live and grow is the key to beating them for good!

👶 Eggs (Nits) – Tiny, oval, and glued to the hair shaft. They hatch in 7–10 days.
🪰 Nymphs – Baby lice that look like smaller adults. They grow and mature within 7–10 days.
👩‍🦱 Adults – Fully grown lice can live up to 30 days on the scalp, laying up to 8 eggs a day.

➡️ This means a single louse can quickly turn into a full infestation if not treated properly.
➡️ Breaking the cycle requires not just removing live lice, but also every last nit.

That’s where Nit Pickers comes in — our professional, chemical-free treatments target every stage of the lice life cycle so you can stay lice-free.
