Sanitary Issues?

[Annarose15]

Wow, I just learned that I'm a lot less careful about snake germs than some of you. I do wash my hands before and after handling, but I do my husbandry cleaning in my kitchen sink, and always have.

I guess after spending so much time in Afghanistan living in an upholstered toilet, I don't worry as much about germs as I used to...

I have been known to drink straight from the garden hose. I guess what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. There have actually been studies showing that children raised in homes with pets have fewer allergies as they grow up - I take the same approach with most germs.
