Fungus gnat eggs can remain dormant for about 4 to 6 days before hatching.
Fungus can remain dormant in winter and then revive in spring, so it is best to treat your lawn as prescribed.
Brine shrimp eggs can remain dormant for at least several years and still hatch when conditions such as temperature, salinity, and oxygen levels are suitable. Under proper storage conditions, some brine shrimp eggs have been known to hatch even after decades of dormancy.
Bed bugs can remain dormant for around 12-18 months without perishing.

Carolina wrens typically remain in the nest for about 12 to 18 days after hatching. During this time, the young birds are fed and cared for by their parents until they are ready to fledge. Once they leave the nest, they may still rely on their parents for food and protection for a short period before becoming fully independent.
Catbird eggs typically incubate for about 12 to 14 days before hatching. During this period, the female catbird will often remain on the nest to keep the eggs warm and protected. After hatching, the chicks are altricial, meaning they are born helpless and require care from the parents for several weeks before they fledge.
Viruses can remain dormant in a cell until conditions become favorable for replication. Factors such as a weakened immune system or stress can trigger the virus to become active again.
Yes, some viruses can remain dormant in the body for many years. For example, the herpes simplex virus can establish latency in nerve cells, becoming inactive and causing no symptoms until it reactivates later. Similarly, the varicella-zoster virus, which causes chickenpox, can lie dormant in the nervous system and later cause shingles. This ability to remain dormant can complicate treatment and contribute to recurrent infections.
Yes, bed bug eggs can lay dormant under certain conditions, particularly when temperatures are unfavorable for hatching. While the eggs typically hatch within about 6 to 10 days in optimal conditions, they can remain viable for several months if the environment is not suitable. This dormancy allows bed bugs to survive in various situations until conditions improve for their development.
Blackbirds typically lay between 3 to 5 eggs in a single clutch, though some may lay as few as 1 or as many as 6. The eggs are usually incubated for about 12 to 14 days before hatching. After hatching, the chicks remain in the nest for about 10 to 19 days before fledging.
The female rhinoceros beetle can lay up to fifty eggs at one time. She normally lays them underground, where they remain for three to four months before hatching.
Tropical spastic paraparesis (TSP), caused by the HTLV-1 virus, can remain dormant for many years, even decades, before symptoms appear. However, not everyone infected with HTLV-1 will develop TSP. Factors such as genetic predisposition and immune response can influence whether the virus becomes active and causes symptoms.
