Lice Removal Battle Ground: About Battle Ground, Washington
Battle Ground is a city of approximately 23,000 in Clark County, Washington, about 20 miles north of Vancouver.

History of Battle Ground
Battle Ground was named after a 19th-century standoff between Army troops and a group of Klickitat people who had left the reservation. No battle actually occurred — the Klickitat returned peacefully — but the name stuck. The community grew slowly as a small agricultural town until the 1990s, when rapid suburban growth from Vancouver pushed the population from about 4,000 to over 20,000 in just three decades.
