Who knows what you might end up doing with your grill this warm summer? If you choose to bring your friends or family for camping and using the grill there are a few things you need to know. First, your grill might be a mess if you had used it previously and you need to clean it. That’s where a metal grill brush comes in handy but you need to be careful about it.
Health Issues
The metal bristles often snap off, especially if you’re using old and rusty brushes. That’s because there is an increased chance of the strands landing on the grate when cleaning. When you grill your food on it, these bristles always end up there. It’s always a health issue when these bristles end up in the intestines. There’s a likely chance that these bristles will perforate your intestinal wall and cause lots of issues.
On the other hand, the bristles could migrate to the liver causing an infection that needs proper treatment. It’s even worse when these bristles perforate the intestines multiple times and need surgical retrieval. Additionally, the wires can also get stuck in the throat causing an emergency removal process in the hospital. You’re also likely going to experience abdominal pain when the sharp object travels through your digestive system and some of these symptoms will present later.
Therefore, to be cautious, you need to throw away your old cleaning brushes. Don’t reuse the old brushes when cleaning out your grill since the bristles are likely to shed. Additionally, before placing your food on the grill, you should check thoroughly to make sure there are no bristles left that might harm you. Note that, these bristles are often too small to be detected with the naked eye so you need to be very careful about it to avoid these and many more health issues.
