We need a lot more info to determine the culprit. But stresses cause hermy. IE: light leaks,heat,nute OD,salt build up, etc etc.

Getting pollen from the bad ones?
If you're killing the hermi's when you find them then pollen isn't the issue, its your setup that's causing them to herm. You will keep having hermaphrodites unless you stop stressing the plants.
The above is only true if you are positive that your seedstock is not from a hermie plant btw.
Also, what do you mean "cross contamination"?

i have two seperate rooms one for veg and one for flower it is in the same house and i dont allow the stuff from my veg to get any were around my flower. i don't know though how i am stressing my plants. the fertilizers are all the same the only thing i can think of is that my flower room is in the kitchen walkin pantry and my son has turned on the lights a couple of times when the plants were sleeping. could that be just enough stress?

Could be, if it was brief and was probably an incandescent bulb, I doubt thats causing the problem.

I think he meant his grow lights were plugged into a switched outlet that his son turned on or off when it wasn't supposed to be. That's just my assumption tho.

Is it possible for this to happen if they are exposed to light just once while sleeping for roughly 10 seconds or so?

Yes it is possible, unlikely if it was for only 10 seconds. But def. possible.
