My neighbour at home, ALWAYS wears here rubber gloves to put items in her dustbin - now that I find strange, but wearing them when emptying the caravan loo isn't strange at all.

Ive noticed people doing this too, so you aren't alone.  Do you then just take the gloves off and put them away, along with any germs that are on them? Ive watched someone doing that.

Wouldn't it be just as hygenic not to wear gloves but to wash your hands and then use anti bac after?

Just a thought, on  this beautiful sunny morning!

i wear the thin latex type disposable gloves, bit like doctors inspection gloves.

 they come in a box of 100 and you can get them in flesh colour and clear (i use blue as thats all we use at work!!).

Certain fast food outlet staff, such as Subway wear them when food handling.

 they cost about £4.00 a box.

OH uses disposable gloves too, just dont fancy leaving used bacteria covered gloves in a locker or cupboard in the caravan to breed more germs, may as well go without and just wash you hands well afterwards than faff around putting dirty gloves back on.

I dont bother, don't get any thing on my hands if careful, always wash hands afterwards.

Have had the odd blue finger from topping up the bottom bit, but it washes off!

Perhaps I should have kept my NBC kit and respirator when I left the RAF!

I do keep disposable gloves for filling up the cars (diesel) as often there are none at the filling satation, Diesel is horrible!
