The dangers of dirt

Oh, OK. I thought you were saying that I meant to say don't instead of doubt.

But I still doubt it came from the soil. Probably his cats.
Cats are known for toxoplasma, but fungal infections?
In any case terbinafine cream; Walmart sells a generic as “athlete’s foot treatment”; be sure to select the drug entity I named.

J/s I've had my cats for years and keep them clean with monthly baths, never had an issue. I only just started growing a few months ago and this pops up on me. Im just a dirty bastard i guess :mrgreen:
I have a cat and mess with my organic soil all the time, but have never had it. It's possible it came from the soil. I know there's different fungi in there. I was rinsing my bucket in my shower and didn't think about possible fungi. Then I got a little fungus growing on my feet and I figured out it was from the bacteria or fungi I was rinsing out of the bucket.

I got some athletes foot cream (Clotrimazole), and that took care of it. So there's definitely a chance it could've came from your dirt, I don't know. The cat thing just seems more logical.

Well the fungal infection I had on my neck from a dust storm...I was told by the Dr that it was from the soil. I guess it was probably different than ringworm. I wouldn't doubt it was from the soil.

Bacteria is what to worry about in soil. Legionnaires disease. Know of a guy who died from it locally. Professional garden store owner. Ventilation/AC is also a nasty place for it to live in.
