18.01.2022 Wheat bags may help ease pain and keep you warm and cosy, but they can also lead to burns and fire if improperly used. Remember - Don’t overheat the wheatbag by... placing it in the microwave longer than specified by the manufacturer. - Don’t leave the wheatbag unsupervised in the microwave. - Don’t let anyone, particularly children or the elderly sleep with a wheat bag. - Don’t use the wheat bag to warm your bed up, as it may spontaneously ignite. - Don’t reheat the wheatbag before it has properly cooled. - A wheatbag should be cooled down on a non-combustible surface before storing.
