The most unsanitary place on the human body is under the tips of your fingernails. Because we touch so many different things, even if we wash our hands regularily, the fingernails tend to accumulate bacteria. That is why it is best to trim your nails so they are short. Long nails can be a breeding ground for staph and strep bacteria that can make you, or other people, sick.
