Thanks for the heads up

That is why I'm already storing stuff in makeshift faraday cages.

I'm still trying to get my head round where to stick the earth wire lol, I'm a bit tech thick, I live on the first floor, how can I ground the earth wire?

Strap it to a metal pipe, or a radiator.

run a wire to the copper pipe on the radiator

Did have a thought about the bath? it's metal and it's earthed but pipe/radiator is good ,thanks.

You can do it but it isn't necessary. The faraday cage is designed to stop waves getting in and earthed or not it does that.
Myself, I do earth mine because it isn't a problem and even if it makes the cage 0.001% better I'll have all the help I can get.
