Washing Hands After Handling The Birds
By: Tony Chavarria Date: July 2, 2011, 6:42 am

Do you make it a practice to wash your hands after you have been
in the loft and puttering or handling your birds? Every time I
come in from the loft I head straight to the sink and wash my
hands. I just don't like the thought of touching items in my
house without having first washed my hands. :P

did.

anti-bacterial soap.
Take care my germy friends

Honestly I'm more concerned about doing it before I enter the
loft if I have been in other lofts.

TONY I DO IT EVERYTIME AS WELL.
ALSO IF I VISIT OTHER LOFTS I WILL WEAR A DIFFERENT PAIR OF
SHOES THAN THE ONES I WEAR IN MY LOFT.
SIMPLE THINGS LIKE HAND WASHING AND WEARING DIFFERENT SHOES
MAKES A DIFFERANCE AND REDUCES THE RISK OF A POSSIBLE PROBLEM IN
THE LOFT.
