    1) Urine is sterile.
    2) Make sure your substrate is thick enough and check his enclosure often enough so that he doesn't sit in his own excrement.
    3) If he's especially icky, just wipe him down with a damp paper towel before letting him on any surfaces.
    4) Much of the dust in your home is dead human cells that you shed on a daily basis. Who is ickier?
