Hygiene at home


By Mitali Joshi (V)

We should keep our house neat and clean. This will help us to remain healthy. We should not throw garbage on the road outside our gate, but use dustbins. Sweet wrappers also should not be thrown here and there. The house looks dirty and gets more flies and cockroaches. If dustbins are not used for throwing away left over food, rats and ants will be all around our house. If our surroundings are kept clean diseases will not spread. Prepared food should not be left uncovered as it will get contaminated by flies and not fit to eat. One first-aid box containing dettol, band-aid, cotton, etc., must be there in every home. If a person cannot be treated at home, he should be taken to the doctor immediately.
