| Description: |
Pubic lice are brown or grey in colour, one to three millimetres in size and shaped like tiny crabs. They live in hair of the pubic area, body and armpits and may also live in strong hair of the face such as beards and eyelashes. Lice feed on human blood. The female lays eggs (nits) which attach to hair and clothing. The eggs hatch in six to 10 days. Lice can live up to four weeks on the human body, but die within 24 hours away from the human body on items such as clothes and bedding.
