The lifespan of oocysts varies depending on environmental conditions and the specific species, but they can remain viable for several months to years in favorable conditions. For example, oocysts of Cryptosporidium can survive for long periods in water, while those of Toxoplasma gondii can remain infectious for years in soil. Factors such as temperature, humidity, and exposure to UV light can significantly affect their longevity.
