8 Ways To Survive Rivers State Black Soot Menace by salesbloo: 3:37pm On Dec 25, 2021 |
1. Make conscious Use of Nose Mask Wearing a nose mask in this period is one of the best preventive measures as it will prevent you from inhaling the contaminated air. It will also prevent the soot from getting into the nose. 2. Keep Windows and Doors Closed Windows and doors should be shut as often as possible in order to prevent the soot from entering homes and work spaces. 3. Reduce Contact with Open spaces Contact with open space should be reduced in order to avoid your hands touch the soot. 4. General cleaning Detergents should be used to clean surfaces daily in order to avoid the accumulation of soot. This would reduce the amount of black soot gathered around the house and offices. Air vents should also be dusted from time to time. 5. Washing your hands daily The implication of not washing their hands after being out all day can’t be overemphasised. While this sounds like a basic advice, it is important to note that it prevents the soot from contact with the mouth. Your hands may have gathered germs and might have touched the open surfaces filled with the soot. 6. Regular Shower It is advisable for residents to take shower at least three times daily. By having multiple baths daily, the soot will not last on the skin to cause injuries or hazards. 7. Keep the skin covered At this period when the city and its environment are covered with the black soot, protective clothing will help many residents. Wearing long sleeves shirts and long trousers or skirts are good options pending permanent solution to the pollution. 8. Avoid contaminated food. Eating foods that are exposed to this contaminated air should be avoided as they could have been contaminated. 9. Raise awareness on the Soot There is urgent need to mount core and active awareness programs calling people’s attention to the inherent dangers of being exposed to the soot and how best it can be avoided.
