Germ A Phobe Poll

It is sickness season.

I just had a meeting with my church's parents over some changes in the nursery and toddler rooms. We spent well over a half an hour talking about the finer points of sanitizing toys. Don't get me wrong, I am about sanitizing kids toys. But the discussion started going to bleach, then cleaning off the bleach with a soap, then a rinse, etc. I am not quite there.

I am a soap and water girl. The things I hear about those "remove 99% of all germs" is that they tend to help super germs grow. The news I hear is that a good wash with soap and water works.

But after this meeting, I am realizing that there are many of us who classify ourselves as "germ a phobes". They are the bleaching, soaping and rinsing people. And there are a lot of them!

So I put a new poll at the bottom left of the page. You can answer more than one of them. I put all the things I could think of that I see people freak about with germs. I will share some thoughts at the end of the six day poll. I will also share I am germaphobic in some areas, but not others. I'll let you know how I answer the poll in the end as well.

Now, go take some vitamin C, wash your hands, and cover your mouth when you cough.

UPDATE:
I don't know how your formatting comes across, but from my end it's hard to read the poll. Here is the list:

Yes, I am constantly grossed out
Yes, I wash my hands more than the average person, but not grossed out often
I use Purell constantly.
I am average. I live by the ten second rule.
I don't mop my floors unless my socks are sticking to the linoleum
I don't let my kids touch anything unless it's been sanitized (ie toys, shopping carts, door knobs, etc)
I don't use public restrooms.
I get sick often.
