How long can lice live on a hairbrush?

Adult lice can’t live longer than 24 hours or so on nonhuman surfaces like carpets, hardwood floors, clothing, furniture, sports helmets, headphones, or hair accessories. However, if you have identified lice in your home, isolate and wash those items and areas within at least 72 hours.

Do lice like cold water?

CAN COLD WATER KILL LICE? Cold water does not kill head lice. If dumped on the head, the lice will only cozy up closer to the scalp, hanging on tightly with its legs. If a louse somehow makes it into cold water, it may slow down some, but will die as a result of being removed from its home.
