I am a non smoker so I know smoking is bad but I want to make the street clean. I try to pick up cigarette butts if I see them but is it okay to touch them with bare hands?

You are touching something that has been in someone’s mouth, and on the ground. It is likely that there are nasty germs on it.

Like any germs, if you wash your hands thoroughly before touching anything else (like your face, phone, keys, etc, you should be fine.
