On Monday June 15th 2009, it's the Department of Health's National Bug Busting Day. It's the day for families everywhere to check their hair for traces of head lice and nits. In support of this Department of Health incentive, The Hairforce are setting up a Head Lice Check & Clear Hotline (0844 848 5948) for people to call-in and listen to advice about checking and clearing hair.

It's a process many parents are unfamiliar with, daunted and defeated by. Many don't even know what they're looking for. The Hairforce are the UK's first head lice and nit clearing service with expert Lice Assassins who 100% guarantee to clear all lice infestations.

The Hairforce has a highly trained team of professional Lice Assassins who clear in the only trusted way - by hand, without the use of any chemicals or treatments. They are armed too, with a set of fresh, disinfected equipment - LeiceMeister nit combs, Lice hoovers, specialist lighting and magnifying visors. Throughout the process, children are kept comfy in specialist seating and entertained with the latest computer games and DVD's.

The service at The Hairforce lounge is perfect for making the Department of Health's National Bug Busting Day a real success as the glamour, professionalism and guaranteed track record of the service is rapidly de-stigmatising the subject of nits and lice.

The Check & Clear Hotline will run from 8am until 9pm on the hour, every hour for the duration of Bug Busting Day on Monday 15th June. The Check & Clear Hotline number is: 0844 848 5948. Calls will be charged at 5p per minute from BT landlines. Mobiles and other networks may vary. Prices are inclusive of VAT.
