Show 1157: Why Are You Never Home Alone?
You may think your home is sparkling clean. But even a clean house harbors a host of small creatures that have a fascinating web of interactions with each other and with the humans who live there.
What do you know about the ecology of your home? How does the dust that accumulates in the corners before you vacuum affect your health? Are there any advantages to cleaning less often? If you have ever wondered about the fungi in your shower, the bacteria on your soap or the camel crickets hiding out in the basement, call in your questions.
Never Home Alone:
Dr. Rob Dunn has written about the wilderness thriving in our living spaces in his book, Never Home Alone. He will tell you why you shouldn’t overdo on the home hygiene and help you understand how to welcome our unseen guests safely.
