Drug prevention in toilets?
There is no lighting that stops you seeing cocaine, apart from the lights being turned off! :-)





What you are thinking of is blue lightbulbs placed in toilets. This stops you being able to see your veins, and so it makes it very hard to inject drugs into yourself.





Have a look at the story below, which shows the lengths a pub owner goes to to stop people using cocaine, ie removing the toilet lids, and spraying WD40 on the top of the cisterns. The cocaine is absorbed by the WD40 turning it into a sticky congealed mess which then can't be snorted.
Reply:I have heard of this lighting.





But jsut because you cant see it, people will still be able to sniff it up!!!!!





If someone wants to do it, they'll find a way round anything, and theres not a thing you can do about it.
Reply:the way to do it is to have no flat surfaces, if you can't do that, then make the flat surfaces rough instead of smooth. another good way is to spray wd40 on the toilet cistern so their coke will just stick to it and be no good.
Reply:there are special blue lamps for that, but as far as I know it's so you can't see your veins, so it would be more for heroin addicts or other people that use drug intravenously. No idea what they are called. Google toilet and blue light.
Reply:Havent heard this but some of our local pubs have artexed the back shelf/cistern and removed the flat cover lid so there is nowhere for punters to "rack" up a line.





You can also smear vaseline on these surfaces!
Reply:there is a light that stops you injecting as the lights make it difficult to see the veins. they have it in our local sainsbury
Reply:There are special blue lights, which mean that you can't see your veins, stopping people from injecting. I think that's probably what you mean.
Reply:Sainsburys Supermarket in York has blue fluorescent ( UV) lighting in the male toilets (" restrooms" US).


This is supposed to make it difficult for intravenous drug users to find a vein as it masks the dark red colour. Perhaps users could tell us whether this works as this doesn't prevent vein marking prior to entering the toilet .
