separate W.C. and washing accommodation provided. A complaint
of grit emission from one of the larger factory chimneys was
dealt with and the work carried out to remedy the nuisance
appears to have had satisfactory results.
Sixty-seven verminous premises, including 52 infestations
of bugs and 5 of fleas, have been disinfested. With the
introduction of new insecticides; D.D.T. and Gammexane it is
hoped that the nuisance from vermin and various insect pests
will show a decrease in the future as the residual effects
of these chemicals should go a long way to bring about an
initial cure and prevent re-infestation.
A summary of the work carried out by the disinfectors
is given below.
