Yesterday evening at our Society meeting we had a visiting speaker who used to work in the Garden Trade, and now retired still runs a small nursury. After fifty years he now, when potting up using compost, wears disposal latex gloves. www.lincolnfuchsiasociety.info I've used disposable gloves when pricking out/potting up for years and heavier gloves when planting in the ground. I also keep TCP and "sanitiser gel" in the garden shed - better safe than sorry as my doc won't give me tetanus boosters any more because I react badly to them. |
