Without us knowing it, harmful bacteria can be found in the goods we use everyday.

The Sun, menungkapkan weirdest place where you can find the bad bacteria and what you can do to keep yourself.

Your Phone

Cellular phones (cell phones) you occupied more bacteria than toilet seats or doorknobs shoe soles.

"The combination of treatments and heat and the heat generated by the phones creates a major nest for all kinds of bacteria normally found in our skin," said Joanna Verran, professor of microbiology at Manchester Metropolitan University.

Bacteria that includes "staphylococcus aureus," which can cause acne to ulcers, pneumonia to meningitis.

Your Bag

The bacteria attach to your bag through your daily activities. For example, knocking him to the sidewalk, put the bag under the table, and your bags are full of disgusting substances.

Experts warn not to put your bag in a place where food is being prepared.

Your bag will remove the bacteria from the bottom of your bag, which may never touch the floor, to the food.

Clean the outside of your bag on a regular basis, and every month clean dirt and debris on the inside.

Your Car

Health Protection Agency, warned that up to 20 percent of cases of lung infections may be caused by standing water in your windshield washer bottle.

The study found that, only a third of drivers to clean their cars more than twice in one year. Only two percent of drivers clean their cars every week.

Your Toothbrush
Viruses, including influenza and herpes viruses can live on a toothbrush for a week and re-infect the user as to contaminate whatever is touched toothbrush. The discovery was disclosed by Dr. Stephen Dunne, a consultant at St. Thomas's Dental Institute.

Hand Dryers

Contaminated with germs hand dryers in the pipelines and air ducts. According to Keith Redway, a microbiologist at the University of Westminster, this tool could increase 255 percent of bacteria.

"Bacteria are blown into the hands of users and in the atmosphere because the air is not hot enough to kill them," said Redway.

Cash

Steve Riley, technical director at Milton hygiene experts said the cash touched thousands of people every day and almost never cleaned properly.

"Fever and flu viruses can live in inanimate objects for at least 24 hours. MRSA and C. diff (" Clostridium difficile ") can persist for months. When a person touches their nose, think about the similarities to their use of ATMs in 24 hours front, "said Riley.
