- Additionally, BBQ tongs, salad tongs, or other pickup device can help create further separation between you and the litter.
- Never touch the litter directly or your face during your cleanup.
- Bring hand sanitizer, especially if you are somewhere where you are unable to wash your hands.
- Only pick up litter that is safe to handle and can be easily disposed of or recycled.
- Have fun, knowing that you are making a difference!
