ALL reptiles carry salmonella - regardless of where they were bred. HOWEVER...

Taking simple precautions when handling reptiles will drastically reduce the possibility of catching salmonella....

ALWAYS wash your hands after handling reptiles or their food - or cleaning out their vivarium. Use either a commercially available product OR a weak solution of Milton fluid (the stuff you sterilise baby bottles with) - one CAP of Milton to two GALLONS of water will suffice.
