Hi, I wouldn't trust that at all. If she doesn't bleach before she gets into her car to go home from work, she has contaminated her van/car. Then anyone who puts their foot down on that part of the carpet is contaminated. I brought home Parvo on my feet from a dear friend's house. I was only there for 15 min, didn't have any dogs, but she had Parvo (she didn't know it) and I brought it home to my house. Ever since then I take no chances a bleach and make every dog person bleach before they enter my house. That includes puppy buyers!
