RE: Legionnaires' Disease Associated in Potting Soils


I can't imagine this is a very big risk.  Anyone who has worked at a nursery
has inhaled more than their fair share of potting soil/dust.  I'd think it
would be endemic to nursery workers and landscapers everywhere otherwise.

This may be old news for some of you.

Please be safe when using potting soil.
