Chewing gum removal
Chewing gum is a relatively recent blight on society. It can be seen particularly in public places. Those grey-white, dirt speckled, dots of gum on pavements, stuck to walls, stuck to the undersides of seating and trodden into carpets of shops and restaurants.
Removing gum on a regular basis helps to keep the area fresh and clean. Also, the sooner it is removed the less likely it is to leave an unattractive “oil stain”
It is interesting to note that where councils and other authorities have taken their responsibility seriously and kept the area chewing gum free there is quite often very little gum in surrounding areas. This suggests that when people see gum everywhere they feel that it is all right for them to discard theirs even though it is an offence to do so with a £60 penalty.
