No sponges or a humidifier in my house. Breeding grounds for all kinds of things. We always had aquariums and they put enough moisture in the air.

A similar article was in the latest Reader's Digest--talk about fear mongering. Ridiculous.

Thanks for sharing! Some of these I knew but a few were news to me.

Well, there's always something. I wish I could have my own washing machine, though.

This is exactly why I don't use sponges for dishes or hardly anything else. Now the salt and pepper shakers, I hadn't thought about, but last night I took all of them and emptied them and put them in the dish soap, and don't really know why, except it just felt to me like they needed to be cleaned.
