Vinaya (respect) for inanimate objects

When I was at home with my parents, one day the wheat flour got dropped on the floor. I remember my mummy ji telling me - "Do not put the feet on the flour". This is respect for inanimate objects. Here wheat flour supresses our hunger, and hence there is respect.

I wonder how this kind of respect helps? Is there any karma thing involved here?. In west, I do not see people having respect for inanimate objects.
