The yummy arcticles about pipe clogging and holding tank stink reminded me of a story my journalist son covered some years ago. From the first link above

"Petersen contracted Streptococcus A in August 1997. He was trying to make extra money by remodeling bathrooms when he scraped himself with a dirty knife. Within 24 hours, the bacteria had consumed his flesh from knee to groin on his left side. The bacteria entered his bloodstream and body cavity, causing a cascade of problems and illnesses."

Read and beware - you should be taking precautions to not get wounded and to treat any wounds with great care
