A bit more History of Lice Squad

Lice Squad Canada has also received international exposure and recognition for their work with head lice. In 2002, Lice Squad won the New Business of the year award for their innovative approach, outstanding marketing concept and customer service. In 2005 and 2007 Lice Squad took Customer service and runner up for Entrepreneur of the year from our perspective Economic Development corporations. The business and marketing system has been compared to the Molly Maid service of house cleaning, by Franchise Magazine with one lousy difference; they use combs, visors and tweezers instead of brooms. Mucci is also quoted in Today's Parent Magazine as being one of Canada's most prominent nitpickers and in Maclean's magazine as being Canada's premier nitpicker.

Since its inception Lice Squad Canada have put more than forty consultants to work in Ontario. There are also 18 franchises operating in Canada.

It is a niche market that continues to expand. Due to a new strain of super lice, awareness of the potential dangers associated with pesticide use, increased press on the topic, word of mouth referrals and an outstanding reputation for quality service. Lice Squad Canada is now the leader in head lice removal services, education and product distribution.

Thankfully, lice do not spread as fast as word of mouth does. Yet when lice do come around, and they always will, people now have someone to turn to for effective hands on help, products that work and education. As Mucci describes, “That is what I needed most and couldn’t find and that is why I started this business.”
