» Judy Arbique - Cleaning of granite countertops

In response to Cleaning of granite countertops posted by carpentershop:


I didn't see anything in the article that alarmed or surprised me...any natural surface is likely to harbour bacteria especially if it originates in the ground. I would think it would be almost impossible to sterilize stone...whether it be granite, limestone or other natural stone.
