    A fact about bacteria

    In school, now learning microbiology. Bacteria cell is very small (1/25,000) of an inch. A cubic inch (1 inch x 1 inch x 1 inch) contains 9 TRILLION bacteria cells. Viruses, are much smaller than bacteria

    Per my text book.

    money is a great guess though.... i would guess that would be high as well... just know that doorknobs and phones have the most because of the numbers of people it comes in contact with.

    I've heard that the seat in a public restroom is the cleanest part in the restrooms .. the door knobs and sink knobs being the dirtiest.
