Spring is here, and it’s a great time to visit the animals at a petting farm or zoo. 🐐🐥

Just remember - farm animals can carry germs, so even if your hands don’t look dirty, always wash them with soap and water after touching animals or the places they’re kept. 🧼

Washing your hands is the best way to protect yourself, as wipes and alcohol gels aren’t 100% effective against all germs.
