Rubber Gloves for bee work
I started using rubber gloves when working bees only when the
handling of pesticides (apistan, etc,) necessitated it. At first I
found them to be uncomfortable- sticky, hot, smelly, etc. Then I
accidentally purchased a whole package (12 pairs) of extra large
gloves and found out that I could wear these all day without
discomfort.
By the way, if you find gloves annoying you might like this
tip: when removing the apistan strips you can avoid rubber gloves by
using a pair of pliers to pull the used strips and throw them in a
bucket for disposal. Still, wash up after handling any pesticides;
use and dispose according to the label!
