i mean after you have handled you herps what do you do

[DeanThorpe]

not always no.
i never "dont" on purpose but on occasion i may walk past one of the rep rooms and quickly nip in and may see a chance to give soemone a stroke or a quick whatever and may not... but generally i do.

I have alcohol gel in every area the reps are in and I use it before I handle each rep and after I don't forget as its an habit I have got used to my hands a bit of an alcoholic where the gel is concerned.

I also have alcohol gel in my car for the same purpose when I collect from someone I can use a bit.

[badboiboom]

ye 95% of the time i do

[HadesDragons]

I always do, but use antibacterial alcohol gel rather than soap and water.

unfortunetly i have severe cracking in my hands and stuff which means at this time of year due to working outside in the cold my hands are very sore and I cant use the antibacterial neat stuff when they ar eliek this, i have to be able to rinse with hot water all the time which is why i soemtimes dont but i agree it should be done and i too have cleaning products of all types in every rep room.

Dean i have the same problem
found a really really good gel to use they sell it in asda its a clear one with added moisturisers
Failing that use hydroquaterzone cream from the dr its also antibacterial and is used for people with really bad skin chapping (instead of soap)
