It can
be tricky to get pesticide-soiled gloves off and safely out
of your way.
To take
off your gloves when you're done working with pesticides,
peel one glove off by holding the cuff. Then, with your ungloved
hand, hold it wrong-side out as you peel off the other glove
by the cuff.
When
you're finished, both gloves will be wrong-side out and the
contaminated surface will be on the inside.
Now
seal the soiled gloves in a one-gallon plastic bag. And they'll
be safely out of your way until you're ready to wash or get
rid of them.
