Do you ever worry that an item you pick up might be covered or laced with something gross/dangerous?

hey anon! i’m definitely mindful of this, especially in a big city like nyc that has all sorts of gross and hazardous materials around, but that’s why I pick up almost everything with a set of these bad boys that I keep in my bag at all times

they’re called trongs and are meant for handling messy food, but I was looking for a solution that was easier than stopping and putting a glove on and taking it off again all the time and these fit the bill for me!

I also wear waterproof work gloves (and sometimes a mask) when I clean items, so in general I’m not touching them with my bare skin until they have been cleaned/disinfected. And of course I always wash and/or sanitize my hands after handling any items.

Thanks for the ask! stay safe out there ✨🐦‍⬛

#ask #anon #not collection #i was doing things barehanded at first then using hand sanitizer because gloves weren’t practical on the go #but my partner and some of my friends were like 🔪 you need more protection #(especially after one incident i had with a surprise sharp object yeowch)#the trongs have been game changing tbh #also make sure you’re up to date on your tetanus shots besties!!
