Object need not be rusty. Rust has nothing to do with the bacterium that causes tetanus, Clostridium tetani. This bacterium is found in the feces of certain mammals such as horses and cattle and makes its way into the soil. When an injury occurs that breaks the skin, such as stepping on a nail, which then comes into contact with the infected soil, tetanus develops.
