I agree with 'coalminer'

I have seen a few latex gloves the ground coming out of a Publix...and a 'homemade' mask on the ground in the parking lot....I was not pleased to see that

in hindsight, I suspect what might be happening is that folks are taking the masks and gloves off as they exit and between the wind, one hand holding on to the cart, arthritis and whatever else the gloves or masks that we are seeing are being unintentionally dropped.

different story regarding the litter that we see from time to time in the grassy areas along Morse and BV Blvd. I suspect that is blowing out of the back of a worker's pickup / or a trailer...or being deliberately discarded by a few folks that work here, but do not live here
