 Hi All ,
 
 I was just wondering if anyone has thoughts or comments regarding
 sterilizing your pruning tools!
 
 Is this something that should be done for the purpose of preventing the
 possibility of spreading disease between plants?
 
 If so how is this best accomplished, soap and water, peroxide, alcohol?

I think it is a good idea to sterilize your tools.  Bleach and water are used
on tree pruning tools but I'm not sure of the amount.
