Description:Reptiles (such as snakes, lizards, and turtles) and amphibians (such as frogs and toads) can sometimes carry germs that can make people sick. These germs can cause illnesses ranging from fever to serious diarrhea.
• Amphibians and reptiles can carry germs even if they look healthy and clean.
• Germs are shed in their droppings and can easily contaminate their bodies and anything in areas where they live and roam, such as their habitat or aquarium tank water.
• These germs can spread to people after they touch these animals or anything in their habitats.
But there’s good news! You can take steps to stay healthy while enjoying your pets.
