Great idea!!! Thanks bunches!
You're welcome Cupcakelanieeeee!!!!!!!!!!
I just did the same thing a few days ago, I dropped a delicate thin glass bowl, and what a mess, and I was worried about those super thin slivers of glass that could still remain in the rough grout. So I put on gloves and used a ton of wet paper towels, but when the sun light shined on the floor, I could still see a few glistening shards were still here and there.
I love this way to go with the bread to absorb up those minuscule pieces.
Thank you Attosa! :)
It's really the only way I was able to get the tiny baby ones up, especially out of the crevices between the tiles. I can't tell you how many times before I thought I'd gotten everything out, and I had not, and ended up in so much pain! Good luck with the next round, Suz! I sure hope you're not as clumsy as me!
I am sorry if I offend anyone but I think this is one of the most irresponsible ideas I have ever seen. When I break glass I sweep it up and then vacuum it. I also recycle broken glass in the glass recycling.We have wild birds outside who love bread.
I'm sure you don't offend anyone with your opinion, just as I hope I don't offend you with mine, but this is what's only worked for me in not finding some piece of glass I step on later that could not get mopped or swept up. Far too many times have I had shards in my foot from between the tiles after the fact. Now? No more. What comes first? My family and my own health and safety. To each their own! :)
Use what works best is a good motto but try to not be irresponsible toward any living thing.
Anyone who has ever passed a landfill will usually have seen large crows gathering food and I believe a crow's stomach must be partly iron as they seem to devour any and everything humans leave behind.
I will remember this if ever needed as my "reach" is beyond trying to remove anything from the bottom of my feet and a tiny sliver can really hurt and is usually very difficult to remove.
That "reach" is exactly it, Betty. My husband is disabled from spinal/nerve damage and this one goes out to him, too.
What a good idea it is to use it for broken glass. Never thought of that.
I did it once to help locate my hard contact lens that I'd dropped on the floor. I wet the bread a bit first though. And I did quickly find it stuck to the bread and I was happy. Damn lens would have cost me $150 to replace.
Excellent idea for your lens! They are incredibly expensive, aren't they? Well done!
