It’s time to prove that they don’t, and then show them how it’s done.
GlitterBug products make it easy to educate students about proper hand hygiene. They visually show that their current techniques are ineffective, helping you teach the correct methods. We offer three products, each designed for a specific aspect of hygiene.
GlitterBug Potion is applied to students’ hands and rubbed in all over, including the wrist. It dries invisible. When they wash their hands, the GlitterBug Potion will be removed with a good handwashing technique. However, the Potion will still be present in any areas that are missed by the washing, and this will show up under UV light.Â
NOTE: What you are seeing glow is GlitterBug Potion. It does NOT make germs glow. Instead, it is pretending to be the germs. Commonly, the palms will be well cleaned, but the finger webbing, nail beds, wrists and edge of the hand will still show leftover Potion.
If germs were visible, we would be much more aware of their easy spread. This is where GlitterBug Powder comes in.
Simply sprinkle the Powder on commonly touched items, like doorknobs, sign-in folders, work surfaces, and the like. It’s invisible to the naked eye. Let the students interact with the surfaces for a while, then use a UV light to track the spread of the Powder. You’ll find it on clothes, seats, ears, nostrils, and everywhere the students have been.
GlitterBug Powder effectively demonstrates how something invisible, such as germs, can be unknowingly transferred.
