Hygiene

There's no Excuse for Bad Hygiene

There are so many diseases which may be caused due to unhygienic environment. There are some ways in which we can maintain cleanliness and hygiene at home, school and other work places:

1. Do not leave bucket or opened containers with water in as it serves as a perfect environment for breeding mosquitoes which can cause fatal diseases like dengue, malaria, chikungunya etc.

2. Clean the ceilings and walls to remove spider webs.

3. Sweep or mop the floors regularly.

8. Arrange the table and chairs neatly.

9. Wash hands properly with soap after using toilet and lunch time.
