Guest guest Posted October 27, 2002 Report Share Posted October 27, 2002 If a Jacuzzi is a spa, then definitely do not let her in it. PA grows in spa's because of the heat and steam. That was a definite thing we were told early on and alot of people on this have mentioned the same.

" HMMM? I am just trying to figure out where she could have gotten this bacteria. We do have a Jacuzzi tub and I am thinking that maybe she got it there. But I can't remember if she has even gotten in it since we were tested last. Thanks for you help. Deb A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
