Thanks, Danab. We have always taken our shoes off upon entering the house, but for different reasons. Here is information about C. Difficile from the Mayo Clinic. The major source of contamination with C. difficile bacteria is through "feces spread to food, surfaces, and objects when people who are infected don't wash their hands thoroughly". Here is the site: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/c-difficile/symptoms-causes/syc-20351691

Yes it always amazes me to see the number of people who don't wash there hands after using the restroom. I always have but i bet at least 50% don't. The main reason was not cdiff for us either. We just like a clean house. Also no footware at all on the carpets but we do have inside sandles for the floors. While in the hospital my room was gown up only and the room was cleaned twice a day with bleach. It was taken very seriously.
