Bacteria on Cellphones

Think twice before you loan your cell phone to your teen. No, I'm not talking about texting-while driving. A recent study in Britain found that cellphones were germier than toilets or shoe soles. KTLA-TV in Los Angeles had a consultant study the cellphones in its newsroom. 10 of 11 phones were swarming with bacteria: staphlococcus, micrococcus, and bacillus.

I don't lend my cellphone to anyone and it gets grimy. I'm constantly wiping it off.
