nits removed from the hair/head cannot hatch; they need the warmth of the human head to hatch and once hatched need to immediately feed.
******************************
not true. they may need the warmth of the human head, but depending on at what point of "incubation" they can still hatch. i am speaking from experience - i have watched it happen on a anti-bacterial wipe that i placed them on while picking them out of my daughter's hair.
----------------------------------------------------------
they can only live up to 6 days if they dont suck our blood they die
if u need to take them out use full marks it takes out all eggs and nits.
hope this helps.

How long do nits live off of human?
Nits, which are the eggs of head lice, cannot survive long without a human host. Once laid, nits typically hatch within 7 to 10 days, and if they fall off the hair, they usually die within a couple of days due to lack of warmth and food. In ideal conditions, some nits may survive for up to two weeks, but they are highly dependent on being attached to human hair for sustenance and warmth.
Can nits live on carpets?
Nits, which are the eggs of lice, do not typically live on carpets. They are usually found attached to hair strands close to the scalp, as they require the warmth and proximity to the host for survival. While adult lice can occasionally fall off hair and might be found on fabrics, they cannot survive long without a host, and nits cannot hatch or thrive in carpets. Regular cleaning and vacuuming can help eliminate any lice or nits that may have fallen onto surfaces.
What is a cure for nits?

Why do you keep getting nits?
because they need blood you keep getting nits because your hair is really greasy and nits love that also it might be because you think you have nits but its your flesy eating the nits ^ nonsense! it's clean hair that attracts lice, because lice like to live in a clean environment and can't really cling onto greasy hair. my only advice is to keep your hair tied back and to use a nit repelent spray (don't worry it doesn't smell nasty) and it will usually stop lice from crawling onto your head from other people's heads, they'll think "eeee. i don't like that. stuff this I'm off" and will go somewhere else. and also keep your head and hair away from other people. hope i helped.
Can you use vinegar to remove lice?
Vinegar can help loosen the glue that holds nits (lice eggs) to the hair shaft, making them easier to comb out. However, vinegar alone may not effectively eliminate lice infestations. It is best to use a combination of treatments recommended by healthcare professionals for effective lice removal.

What are the stages of head lice?
Head lice glue their eggs (nits) onto the base of a hair. About 5 to 10 days later the nit hatches into a nymph which feeds on the human scalp almost immediately, and for a couple of weeks before reaching the adult stage (louse). An adult louse feeds on the human several times per day, and can live for more than a month on the head, laying up to 4 nits per day. An adult louse can not live very long off the human head (usually only a couple of days at most).

Should you wash all your towels and blankets to get rid of head lice?
it would be a good idea but you don't have to, the lice/nits live in the roots of your hair so they wouldn't be on your towels,, only if you put them there, and in fact if they were on your towels thy would die after 2 days as they need human blood to live!! i hope i answered your question
How far away do you have to be if someone in your class has nits?
If someone in your class has nits, you do not have to stay far away from them. The fact is, even if you are sat right beside someone who has nits, you might not get them off that person. Nits don't jump, so unless your heads are right next to each other, as they would be if you were whispering something to them, it is unlikely that they will pass nits on to you.
