The garden is full of stuff that is only rarely apt to cause injury to the skin unless someone is overly sensitive or allergic, but which can make ANY nose-picker or eye-knuckler VERY sorry. There are also potential life-risking infections that can be gotten from soil, including tetanus which makes death-by-gardening sufficiently a realistic threat that some nurseries & gardening organizations should make tetanus booster shots a requirement. Try to imagine the results of chopping red Savina peppers ( an upgraded Habanero pepper ) without wearing gloves. Hands were washed, but not sufficiently... before going to the bathroom. Eyes are not the only mucous membranes on the human body. "Great Balls of Fire!" |
