Dog
Feces is more than just a nuisance - it can pose a serious
health hazard. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC), when infected dog droppings
are left on the ground, the eggs of the roundworms and other
parasites can linger in the soil for years. As a result,
anyone who comes in contact with the soil also comes in
contact with the infected eggs. |

|
Our
children run the greatest risk of infection because they're
prone to play in the dirt at the park or playground and
then put their hands in their mouths or rub their eyes with
their hands. Teens or adults playing frisbee or touch football
in an open area could be in danger. Parasitic infections
can make humans extremely sick, and for pregnant woman,
can pose a serious harm to their unborn child. |
