Hand washing

How many times would u wash your hands in a day. To be honest I would only wash mine when I come in at night or if I was spraying or puting down poison or working with hay or straw

wash them outside before i go into house and wash them again when i get into house, could be 5 or 6 times a day, also wash then before i start the washing of the milking machine

Id say the answers could vary a lot between dairy and suckler farms, in a dairy farm there's generally hot water on tap in the yard, not so much on sucklers...

Id wash them whenever i go in to the house, and will often go in to the shed we have here with cold water tap and sink to wash them if I've been at anything oily or mucky, and if plastered in cow s**t will run in there to wash off the heavy so i dont get hassle over dirtyin the sink also have a tub of rags in main tractor incase i get destroyed at slurry.. Cant stand some contractors go in to people's houses for food and wont wash there hands first

Oh and suckler here.....

Anytime before meals. Bfast.dinner , tea , and maybe once or twice between depending how dirty they are.
Very easy to pick sum thing up, from rats etc. I don't even think about it to be honest as have done the same thing since a young fellow

There was a clip from Seinfeld the other night he was in the jacks in a restaurant while waiting for dinner. The chef came out of a cubicle after doing his business and said ah Jerry I have the meal almost ready and walked out the door, Seinfeld looked towards the door and the sink and looked very worried :eek:

Wash them whenever I come into the house, the place would be covered in grease and dirt if I didn't

I wear gloves 90% of the time at work but still wash at least whenever I come into the house.

I wear gloves 90% of the time also and have boxes of latex gloves in slatted shed and suckler shed for doing wet work etc.
Hands are washed several times during the day but If I don't use gloves and creames hands chap and split within days .

I thought OP was on about hand washing clothes
Wash hands after the bog and before eating the spuds and heading to the cot.

I'd be a sticker for washing the hands too. Someone gave out to me recently for handling stuff like bags and that, around the farm without wearing glooves. What about rat's pee and all that. Well my answer was I dont put my hands near my mouth when I'm out and about. It's something I know I instinctively don't do.
I try and wear heavy duty glooves around silage and slurry but oily and greasy jobs they aint no good and the disposable ones tear in no time.
In cold weather washing hands outside in cold water always leaves them split and bleeding.Hand cream when I come in is the only job.
