[QUOTE="mstang67chic, post: 312276, member: 2459"] I'm not sure if this would work in your situation but.... Back in the day, I worked in a factory winding coils for....yeah...the name of the things escape me at the moment. The coils went into these longish rectangular metal boxes that were used for flourescent lights. :slap: Anyhoo.....because the wire would dig into our fingers as we started a new coil and worked with it, we would wrap our fingers in this tape like stuff. (I'm so freaking helpful aren't I? LOL) I think it's similar to the horse tape and sports tape I've seen mentioned here. Ours was about the width of medical tape (1/2 inch or so) and wasn't adhesive backed but stuck to itself. It's grippy so you wouldn't have to worry about your fingers slipping and you could always leave a fingernail or two uncovered to get those stickers off. I KNOW the name of this stuff....the name for it is escaping me too. *siiiiiiiiiiigh* That might help though. As for the bird bite....don't feel bad. My mom had a parakeet that would get her so much she looked like she had scabies. Hands, arms, neck....wherever that bird could reach, he'd get. [/QUOTE]
