Latex Gloves

[Merlyn]

On a video on YouTube or similar I saw someone butchering a deer wearing long sleeved latex gloves. Can't find any to purchase. Anyone any ideas where they might be obtained. I have tried pond gloves etc and they are too big and floppy (I have small hands for a bloke). Tried vets examination gloves but they are too flimsy and big floppy things. Ticks are bad in this area at the moment and my last munty got its revenge.

I use vets examination gloves & then put a normal latex glove on as well - a bit OTT but saves tick bites and having to take my coat off and then freezing on a Scottish hillside after hinds

I wear long sleeves and examine my upper body when I‘m done. Good enough.

Sounds right. Anything is OK as long as it keeps the ticks out.

This is crazy as I get my ordinary gloves from Workwear. It is managed by a wildfowling friend of mine and their shop is just fifteen minutes away. Will definately try these.

This I can try as I have them already. Just never tried two pairs of gloves at the same time.

That's what I did on Saturday but got bitten on the arms quite a lot.

Lambing gloves are long arm but not very tight and def not latex.

Gloves no matter how long will only reduce the number of ticks. It will not stop them all only a visual check and remove.....even that not 100% some little bas seems to make it through. The vets gloves are good for keeping your jacket clean on a quick gralloch

I don't think they are the same guys as the ones in Eye , if that's where you mean.

 

[NickJ]

I wear long nitrile gloves (two or three inches longer than normal) then sleeve protectors, all available on Amazon

Obstetric gloves are fine for gralloching, and cheap. If you find them awkward to work in due to loose fit just put ordinary nitrile gloves over the top.

You are correct Sam64. Went there this morning and they don't stock them. Thanks.
