If you connect both ends of your water hose together, you won't have any cross contamination, any worse than laying the hose on the ground and a bird flies over head. The inside of the hose stays clean.
I always rinse the ends of my hoses, and always run 15 or 20 seconds of water through before actually using the hose. But I use regular garden hoses too, not the RV type. I do sanatize them a couple times a year, but the real secret is to keep the ends hooked up together.
Venting is always a good thing. If the container is sealed, it could start smelling, even with clean hoses and water.
