Glove recommendation

Ratpack · 10/13/2008, 03:03 PM

I have heard the dangers of the toxin in Zoa's and was wondering what gloves most zoa keepers use. I have the bulky blue and orange ones but they are next to impossible to do anything with other than moving large things around.

Get the type of gloves found in healthcare. Make sure they are non-powdered.

Walmart carries them in their Pharmacy section. Like
SlowCobra mentioned get the non powdered type. I got a whole bunch free due to the fact they were the wrong color and the office mgr didn't want them

We just picked up a 50 pack at Walgreens for $4 (maybe $3, can't remember). They are non-latex, non-powder coated. They only go up to my wrist, but for fragging purposes they cover all the scratches on my hands.

I bought a box of a couple hundred powder free nitrile gloves at Lowes for $10 that I use when I prune the stinging sponges.
