burning old palm leaf roofs to kill bugs |
text: |
The glow of fire came from several places. The old palm leaf roofs which are being replaced by new ones now are thrown on heaps and are now burnt. The main reason for the replacement are the millions of bugs which live in the roofing and which cannot be removed in any other way. While passing the houses one often hears a fine rustling which is caused by the innumerable beetles and bugs crawling through the palm leaves. The same evening the Ang and his helpers brought the drum to the bungalow. |
