A. PRESENTATION
Our lesson today is about controlling or
managing noise pollution and pest and rodents
So what is noise pollution? Every source of noise is a potential source of
noise pollution. Air conditioners, electronic
home appliances, trains, traffic, heavy
equipment, and others all make noise. The
dangerous levels of noise of a noisy
environment could be hazardous to human
health. Noise pollution has been linked to
health problems like hearing loss, high blood
pressure, fatigue, increased stress, and
sleeplessness.
Can we prevent Noise pollution? Yes teacher
How? - Turn off electronic gadgets. Turn down
volumes when playing various music systems
such as stereos, television and the like.
- Stay away from noisy machines and heavy
equipment.
- It has been observed that certain persons
blow horns of their vehicles unnecessarily, or
remove silencers of the exhaust pipes of
vehicles. Such practices which produces much
noise should be avoided.
- Use personal protection in places or in
occasions where noise cannot be controlled or
reduced. In certain high noise areas such as
airports and some factories and
construction sites, workers wear
headphones to block out dangerous noise
levels. Cover your ears or wear
earplugs/headphones when near these
noisy places.
- Trees, hedges, and other vegetation
along residential areas and along roads is
a good way to reduce noise pollution
because they absorb sound. Help
maintain plants around your home.
So there are many more ways to prevent noise
pollution.

insect pests and rodents.
Dispose of garbage and liquid waste properly
and frequently. Store garbage in garbage bins
with tight covers. Garbage and left-overs are
food for insect pests and rodents. They also
become breeding places for flies and
cockroaches
Destroy breeding places of mosquitoes. Cover
water containers like pails and drums. Dispose
containers or receptacles which can hold
water or place them upside down so that they
don’t store water when it rains

poison is almost always necessary to

and keep them away from children. When
using any pesticide, be sure to limit the
exposure of everyone in your household.
