Research has shown that people are more likely to throw rubbish on the street or in nature if there is already a lot of litter around. And of course, litter is bad for nature, animals and people: it can contaminate the soil while animals may eat it or get entangled in it.

Unfortunately, it is a given that wherever there are people, there is rubbish left behind. Littering in nature causes annoyance. It attracts vermin, and unfortunately litter attracts more litter. Research has shown that people are more likely to throw rubbish on the street or in nature if there is already a lot of litter around. And of course, litter is bad for nature, animals and people: it can contaminate the soil while animals may eat it or get entangled in it. Furthermore, clean-up costs can mount up very quickly. Keeping footpaths clean is a very labour-intensive job. IMBuildings People Counters provide insight into how many people are moving and where. This information can then be used to decide which paths need to be cleaned. Where and when it’s really necessary. This saves costs and reduces man hours.
