Description Body lice often are located in the seams of the clothing. The treatment is simply physically washing the lice off the body, and destroying them within the clothing by washing them in hot water or dry-cleaning them. Itching can be relieved with the use of topical steroids, oral antihistamines, or oral steroids.
