In addition to the crushing heat, the residents of the Gobert residence in Cayenne, in the Urban Renovation district, have to deal with unsanitary conditions. For weeks, household waste was not collected. An inconvenient situation reported to the media by a resident.
More than a month since the garbage had been collected in the impasse Achille Modeste in the Urban Renovation district of Cayenne.
The pile of rubbish was starting to pose a hygiene problem according to residents. They can no longer bear to live with this waste which litters the ground and fear the health consequences.

This November 4 morning, when our team went to the site, a company came to collect some of the trash but it is not enough according to Laure-Lenn Reivax, tenant in this impasse: .
“There are rats, flies, this poses a hygiene problem. Children walk in them to go to school, when they return home they bring germs back…the company picked up some of it there has a lot less but until when…”
The Gobert residence depends on SIGUY but, when contacted, the Guyana real estate company was unable to answer us on this question of waste management.
