Where do you get Nitrile long cuff gloves from?
justgloves.co.uk
Huge selection to choose from.
That's where I've been looking. The last lot I had were bodyguards blue longer cuffs in small but they've gone up a couple of quid from last time.
I am wondering about short cuff ones and using sleeve things to stop bees going up my sleeves...
Whatever length you use the sleeve things are great; you don't need to worry about any gaps as you move about.I am wondering about short cuff ones and using sleeve things to stop bees going up my sleeves...

I buy boxes of 100 short-cuffed latex gloves for £6 each from out local chemist, and wear them with wrist cuffs. I’ve not experienced bees getting trapped, but occasionally the glove and wrist cuff can move apart exposing a vulnerable wrist. I found that the best way to avoid that is to tuck the gloves in under the wrist cuffs, rather than wrapping them over the cuffs.
Ps: they’re powder-free - so, I have a tub of odourless chalk powder handy to rub on my hands for when I need to change gloves.
