Killer Bag

Have you ever wondered how harmful your bag could be to your health?

Not just a handbag but shopping bags, sports bags, swimming bags, rubbish bags and any other bag you can think of.

You’re not sure where I am coming from? Well let me set the scene.

You are off to the gym for a workout. You put your sports bag on the floor of the changing room.

You are going into town. You take along your handbag and put it down on the passenger side floor.

You are out for a meal and a drink and you get a taxi home putting your handbag on the floor of the taxi by your feet.

You have just been to get the grocery shopping and you bring the bags into the kitchen from the back of the car in the spot where your dog normally sits.

Now throughout your bags life it has come into contact with the floor at one time or another, no matter how careful you are it will have and most people when they are unpacking a bag or just setting it down somewhere will do this on the worktops or kitchen counters.

Think back to the last bag you put down on your kitchen worktops.

Where had that bag been?

Where did that bag come from?

No doubt at some stage it had come into contact with the floor, maybe in the car or at the bus stop when you were sorting out your fare, or on the floor at work or in your friends living room.

Just think how many feet have travelled on the same spot as your gym bag, some feet that may have stepped in something unpleasant.

You baby changing bag may well have been set down inside a toilet and then you repack it with nappies on your working tops!

We can’t possibly go round every few seconds cleaning away the bacteria that will be in our homes, but if you just stop and think where you are putting your bag before you put it there, you could save yourself and your family the pain and discomfort of  any illness caused by your bag.
