Out of sight, out of mind? Make sure you don’t leave your home’s roof gutters unattended.
 
If it gets clogged with fallen leaves, the accumulated water may become the perfect breeding ground for Aedes mosquitoes.
 
So, make sure to keep your roof gutters clear and place BTI insecticide. Let’s continue to B-L-O-C-K dengue and Zika at least once a week.
Break up hardened soil
Lift and empty flowerpot plates
Overturn pails and wipe their rims
Change water in vases
Keep roof gutters clear and place BTI insecticide

Captain Green agrees that the best way to accessorise is with a reusable bag. It sure doesn’t hurt to be fashionable and eco-friendly at the same time! 👜🌿

Did you get it right? The use of biodegradable bags is not necessarily better for the environment, which is why you should bring your own reusable bags instead!

A more sustainable approach is to reduce the excessive use of disposables and use reusables where possible.
