Gardening gloves are good. I think I just know how to pick them up-have never been hurt by one.
You know, Kya is not bothered AT ALL by them. To a weird extent . Hardly raises an ear. Other noises she is like any other dog, straight off to investigate but not with fireworks. I guess it's much better than her being scared so I don't mind!
Between 7 am and 11pm, I think it is illegal to use fireworks. I could be wrong I'm not the oracle on it but I *think* so . It scares me that any member of the public over 18 can easily get their hands on them, any time of year from a licensed establishment. I'm a bit biased though I guess, I've never liked fireworks.

Like you, I know how to pick them up, if you do it gently and cup your hands all you feel are the tips of the spines like a plastic hair brush. It's if you try and grab it with fingers out stretched, that's when you get hurt by them.
When I used to look after a friends dog it used to cower under chairs when fireworks were let off.
Down here, they only start letting off fireworks few days before the big night and then usually stop. They got better behaved a few years ago as far as I recall. I'm sure up north they carry on letting them off after the 5th.
