DISINFECTION.
Disinfection of Rooms.—1,942 rooms were disinfected, as contrasted
with 2,042 in 1923. For this purpose formaldehyde in solution, was employed,
although it was sometimes augmented by sulphur dioxide, when it was necessary
to kill vermin, for which purpose it has been found most effective. For the
extermination of bug's, however, all the architrave mouldings and skirting boards
behind which they breed are removed, and the walls washed with hot lime.
The above figures also include the disinfection of houses and rooms after
Tuberculosis, vide p. 29.

Table: The Cleansing and Spraying of Rooms.—1,555 rooms, as contrasted with 1,525 in 1923, were cleansed and sprayed.
