Pubic lice are usually spread through sexual contact. Rarely, infestation can be spread through contact with an infested person's bed linens, towels, or clothes. A common misunderstanding is that infestation can be spread by sitting on a toilet seat. This isn't likely, since lice cannot live long away from a warm human body. Also, lice do not have feet designed to walk or hold onto smooth surfaces such as toilet seats.

Yes. In college the floor below me had an outbreak of pubic lice because of one sl*t that had them. Her roommate got them first and it spread in the showers and in the bathroom. People that visited her room got them too.
