Well, they can't grow in the ice, and if there are any spores floating 
around your fridge, you can kill them by boiling the melted ice. There will 
be spores in distilled water, unless it is prepared under sterile conditions 
(unlikely) and bottled in sterile containers (unlikely) and you use it under 
sterile conditions (unlikely). You would need medical packs of the stuff to 
be reasonably clean of bugs.
