WHAT'S DIRTIER: CELL PHONE OR TOILET SEAT?
When people in New York City were asked which they thought was dirtier -- the sole of your shoe, a toilet seat or a cell phone -- the answer was overwhelmingly the toilet seat.

But they were wrong -- your cell phone is filthier.
New research out of the United Kingdom found mobile phones are a technological petri dish for tens of thousands of germs.

Germs multiply in warm places.

Between the heat the phones generate and the germs on faces and hands, you've got a bacterial breeding ground.

Believe it or not, the filthiest phones can spread the dreaded staph bacteria, which can cause everything from skin infections to meningitis.

So, keep your phone to yourself and clean it frequently with anti-bacterial wipes.
