A good fact to know is that freezing don't kill many parasite eggs and pathogens. It will only suspend the advancement of the life cycle until they are reintroduced to the proper temperature and and environment. A good example is why you can't eat raw chicken even after it's been frozen. The best ways to kill pathogens is with high heats (Baking, boiling, or microwaving). Specific chemicals will kill choice pathogens such as the medicines when the animal is infected and bleach for cleaning habitats.
