+Knobhiker Posted October 20, 2007 Share Posted October 20, 2007 I started to use large pill bottles labeled "CITO" for my litter bag and rubber glove containers. At each cache I would leave one of these, but I ran out of pill bottles. Then it hit me. Put the bags in the glove, and write "CITO" on the glove! This eliminates one more possible waste item - the pill bottle. So if you find a geocache with a "CITO" rubber glove stuffed with a Wal-Mart bag, Knobhiker was there, or another conscientious cacher!

+Eartha Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 I like this idea of leaving a rubber glove. I always end up being barehanded, wishing I had a glove. I do carry those little sample sized bottles of hand sanitizer in my pack. You can refill them from a bigger one too, instead of buying more small bottles. Quote Link to comment
+Trucker Lee Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 Great idea!! Provide cachers with a trash bag and a glove to protect their hand from foreign substances and little biting critters at the same time. A box of exam gloves can be found at many dollar stores for a reasonable price. I have finished my first box of 13 gallon kitchen bags that I rolled and rubber banded to leave in caches. This idea came just in time. Thanks. Quote Link to comment
+Scare Force One Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 I would much rather use a glove than touch all the crap youcan find out there. I think that the glove idea is great. ~.~Scare Force One Quote Link to comment

+elmuyloco5 Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 You can get free containers at any film developing area. Most of the chain stores or grocery stores that develop film save their 35 mm film canisters. They'll give them to you for free. Slap on a nice CITO sticker that you personalize with your printer and stuff it with a bag and a latex free glove. Then, when people are done with your CITO, they can use the container for a cache, or put another sticker on and fill it up for someone else! Quote Link to comment

The boxes come with 150 gloves each as opposed to 10 at the dollar store. The bags and film cans should cost you zip. Quote Link to comment
+Suburban Hillbillies Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Brilliant! I like it, and will try a few in my caches here. Quote Link to comment
