Please tell me can sperm survive more than one hour on cloth at room temperature. I have read that sperm live long in wet environment. So how long will sperm survive on wet cloth because semen can not dry fastly. Please for both condition at room temperature.

Please On a dry surface, such as clothing or bedding, sperm are dead by the time the semen has dried. In water, such as a warm bath or hot tub, they'll likely live longer because they thrive in warm, wet places. When sperm are inside a woman's body, they can live for up to 5 days.
