A member asked:

My daughter drop raw honey on all over floor my friend told me that it has some type of bacterial spores which are not good for infant i also hv 8 month old baby so i m little concern can i normaly clean that or do some thing special to clean honey?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

The infantile gut under age 1 yr has a potential problem with botulism spores (germ seeds) that can be found in raw honey. The spore can establish a germ colony that makes a toxin. We discourage people from offering this in any quantity under age 1 yr. After a year it does not seem to be a problem. Normal cleaning to the point you feel no stickiness is adequate to remove any risk.
