Yes but only for a couple of hours as they need blood to feed.
Lice cannot survive for long on pillows as they require a human host to feed on. While it is unlikely for lice to infest pillows, it is still recommended to wash bedding and pillowcases in hot water and dry them on high heat if lice are present to help prevent any possible infestation.
lice can live only one to two days with out an host.
No. As long as there is hair on your head and you don't treat the lice, they will continue to live.
Pubic lice can live less than a day without a human host.
it stays on until your not breathing
7 days
8-10 years
Basically, head lice live for up to 7 days. Each day they can lay up to 100 eggs a day. They keep hatching and the routine goes on and on.
Lice is a parasitic organism, meaning it feeds off of its host in a negative way. Lice is most often species specific- meaning that the lice (in this case cat lice) evolved along with its host (the cat) and would have a had time adapting to a different species such as a human.
Until you wash your hair with an insecticide. You can buy one from your chemist.
Lice may live for several weeks on a person, but they rarely live more than 48 hours when removed from a person's body.Hope I helped.~MaKayla
Head lice live on the scalp, specifically close to the hair follicles where they can feed on blood several times a day. They do not wander far from the scalp as they cannot survive for long without a human host.
