Did you know an average person produces about 4.9 pounds of garbage daily? If you multiply this by 30 days, it equates to about 147 pounds of garbage monthly and about 1,788.5 pounds yearly.
But on the positive side, Florida Express Environmental is committed to ensuring that any trash you produce either at home or in your offices is properly collected and disposed of. The goal is to ensure you don’t suffer the risks associated with overfilled trash bins.
So, what impact do overfull garbage bins have on your health?
Let’s find out.
1. Create a Good Environment for Vermin, Insects, and Bacteria
Unattended garbage bins give vermin, insects, and bacteria an ideal place to breed and grow. Flies from the garage bin eventually contaminate your food or beverages. This exposes you to the risk of getting salmonella, which causes gastroenteritis, enteric fever, and food poising.
2. Affects the Entire Ecosystem
Clean and uncontaminated water is essential for humans, plants, and animals. Liquid waste and garbage can get into the water, causing water pollution. Polluted water affects fish and other animals that live in water. If this water finds its way into your office or home tap, it can cause serious health problems such as diarrhea, and typhoid.
3. Contaminates the air
One of the obvious reasons you dislike being near an overflowing bin is the awful smell. But did you also know that decomposing waste produces toxic gases such as methane, nitrous oxide, and even carbon dioxide? These gases cause respiratory problems when inhaled.
Take Away
Garbage is simply disgusting. As mentioned above, poor handling of garbage can lead to serious health problems. Florida Express Environmental helps you with proper office or home garbage disposal. Who doesn’t love a clean environment and fresh air?
