Was going to get grow bags and such but now thinking better of it.
How about online stuff? Surely deliveries are a major potential source of infection from packaging and contact with drivers who are visiting loads of homes and handling lots of packages? |  |

I have wondered about the delivery stuff too and have taken to wiping all we get and even post and all groceries we buy in shops with Dettol wipes. Sounds a bit extreme but been doing this since last week |  | | |

If you can, use washing up or disposable gloves to carry anything in from outside.
If you want to re-use just wash with hot soapy water and leave to dry in the sun. |  |

We get the Aldi equivalent but they are pretty scarce. Things like these/hand gel and all essentials should be posted to every resident in this country but cannot see this government even thinking of doing this. | | | |

I bloody hate going in shops at the moment. Feels like putting yourself in danger.
If they implement lockdown that's me done for a month. I'm not stepping outside the boundaries of my home/garden if I can help it. |  |

The other way with deliveries of non perishable goods is to leave them in garden for a few days for any virus to die in the sun. |  |

All the above seems a tad extreme. Just wash every thing in hot water. Boiled veg are not going to harm you | | | |

I get a lot of post & deliveries & simply can't do that with every item or it'd take me hours of time which I don't have.
I tip all items out of their envelopes or outer cardboard boxes, put the actual items in a box & leave them for 3 days, by which time the virus will have died on paper/cardboard (plastic takes longer). You can read the contents of many letters by just ripping the top & holding by bottom corner.
The outer envelopes or boxes I burn or put in recycling if that's more than 3 days away.
Then wash hands properly after handling. |  |
