They can also be found in the intestinal tract. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is frequently present in hospital environments especially in moist places such as sinks, bowls, drains, cleaning buckets and humidifiers. It can also be found growing in eye drops, ointments and weak antiseptic solutions Pseudomonas pseudomalleiis naturally found in rice paddy fields, the mud of riverbanks and surface stagnant water. The organism can infect cattle, pigs and other animals. Describe the
