Editor’s summary
Bacillus cereus is a cause of food poisoning, which could be prevented through the use of lytic bacteriophage. This study describes a novel phage, isolated from sewage, in the family Myoviridae. This phage is able to infect a broad range of Bacillus species, including B. cereus and B. anthracis, indicating its potential application in food preservation.

Bacteriophage therapy is a potential tool to combat bacterial infections of livestock and preventing their spread to humans. This study characterizes the phage shed from sheep and cattle inoculated following E.coli infection, but that are not related to the bacteriophage therapy being trialled. These "rogue" phage must be considered in the interpretation of such trials.
