Bacteria will multiply so fast between 41-135 degrees Fahrenheit. Bacteria can grow rapidly in the TDZ, also known as the Temperature Danger Zone, which is 41f - 140f. Generally 37 degrees - body temperature. However some, such as fungi, prefer lower temperatures as they are found on the outside of the body. Similar some bacteria.
