Public transportation is another common way an individual can contract head lice. As previously stated, head lice can live on external surfaces unattached to humans for a maximum of twenty-four hours. Therefore, if an individual sits in a seat recently occupied by an individual carrying the insect, it is quite possible lice may be attached to the seat. To prevent exposure to head lice on public transportation, it is a good idea to carry antibacterial wipes and wipe off the seat before sitting down. Doing this will knock any remaining lice that may be attached to the seat and prevent contraction.

It's time to reveal the next place where individuals can get head lice from.
