In Reply to: I know Samonilla is a danger but whats the danger between KIDS and Reptiles posted by Christy on February 19, 2002 at 18:16:47:

always up to par, I have to admit (LOL)....Reptiles ie:Iguanas can carry the virus, sort of like herpies, it isn't always present but can pop up now and then. I believe it is transmitted through the feces, so if a Lizard poops and then drags dried feces on the carpet when he roams, the baby could come in contact with it. Does that make sense? I'm not very good at explaining it, but I do plan on reading Desiree's links. She's probably the one that posted the earlier info quite awhile back and I remember reading one specific article on this very subject.
P.S. I'm glad there's no hard feelings! J
