NitWits Owner Berit Pratt RN BSN MPH did her Masters in Public Health on Pesticides and Cancer.  As a Mom, and School Nurse, she noticed chemical pesticides were no longer working for head lice in children.  Now Head Lice can be treated effectively and quickly without the use of chemical pesticides. Our Award Winning DVD explains the  social, political, military, and natural history of Head Lice.  We debunk the 7 most common urban myths about Head Lice and deconstruct the extraordinary social stigma.  Our focus on education provides you with accurate knowledge and the proper tools to effectively, and safely, manage Head Lice in your community.

Founded by 3 Moms with daughters, and School Nurse Berit Pratt RN BSN MPH.

Head Lice creates a huge stress for Moms called MLS or "Mom Lice Stress". Head Lice are misunderstood, harmless human parasites with a very strong social stigma in the USA. This adds to Mom Lice Stress. All of our parents also get DP or  "Delusional Parasitosis". Your whole body itches, even if you don't have Lice!  Over 8 years we have developed a very effective lice removal technique that removes both the bugs and the eggs and prevents them from coming back.  We have seen thousands of satisfied families from all over New England.  We know that head lice are not in your house, bed, car, couch, clothing or hats.  So you can stop vacuuming, doing laundry & bagging stuffed animals.  We focus your, and our, time instead on removing the eggs and bugs from your child's head.
