Back(teria) to School

Sunday, August 22nd, 2010

Keep this in mind as you send your kids back to school: lunch and cafeteria trays are some of the dirtiest surfaces, holding around 35,000 bacteria per square inch! That means lunch trays are as filthy as public park sandboxes and have more bacteria per square inch than a high-traffic store floor. Note – the average toilet seat has “only” about 3,200 bacteria per square inch. Don’t forget to pack the hand sanitizers and beg them to wash their hands!
