Whether or not you like the flowers they are not causing dysentery.
I have traveled extensively where dysentery is a problem. The
preventative is to wash dishes, (the dishwasher is good) and your
hands and to keep your hands out of your mouth and eyes. Something
clean to dry hands on would be a help. <br>
<br>
All of the business about the counter, flowers, etc are nice if they
are of interest to you. They will have no effect on the dysentery.

<div>If she's bringing the flowers in every day, it would be nice
of her to toss the old ones before they get too nasty. Flowers
are nice, though dried flowers don't have as many problems as
their fresh-picked cousins (eg watering, grossness, flies). A
sign seems a bit excessive.<br>

<div>Once the counter edging is replaced, I heartily recommend
clear silicone caulking for corners and edges. It's a simple
step, but it will *really* prevent cleaning/mold/nastiness
issues in the future. It might be worth taking an old
toothbrush and rags to the edging now to see if the gunk will
come out. If it's possible to thoroughly clean the edging, then
you can probably caulk it when clean.</div>

- All the blooms and roses brought daily by Wish into
the kitchen area that unhappily wilt, die, and decay
here... something fruit flies seem to love. First,
having had a mother whose hobbyist passion was growing
roses to enjoy on the bush, I'm wondering the excellency
of how these roses/flowers are being picked. Secondly,
I think NB's kitchen can sacrifice color for the sake of
hygiene. Finally, with all their thorns, disposing of
them is rather painful. Is there any great object to
a sign putting flowers and floating blossoms on hiatus?<br>

I object to a sign because you know one specific person
who brings flowers, and you want her to stop. It would be
really passive aggressive to put up a sign when you could
just talk to her yourself; I'm not sure why you're
e-mailing everyone on the list instead of doing so, in
fact.<br>
