Pool House Addition

Here are the microbes and gunk the average swimmer can bring into the pool:

• Hair: 10 million microbes 1
• Spit: 8 million microbes in a single drop 2
• Hands: 5 million microbes 3
• Poop: 140 billion microbes 4
  • A kid brings 10 grams of poop—the weight of 4 pennies—with 10 trillion microbes. 4
• Nose, mouth, skin: Billions of microbes 5
• Skin products: Lotions, cosmetics, soaps
• Sweat: 1 or 2 soda cans 6
• Pee: 1 cup 7

Now think about how much of that same water you swallow in 45 minutes of swimming 8:

• Adults: 1 tablespoon
• Kids: 2 ½ tablespoons

That’s more than enough to make you sick!
