What to do if i discovered a lice on my under shirt but my body does not itch?

Best to treat: Hopefully you have discovered the infestation in its very early stages. Since body lice are sometimes difficult to eliminate and are contagious, waiting for signs of itching before initiating treatment may make it harder for you to become louse free. A treatment course for all household members and decontamination of your home should be a serious consideration .
