The correct option is D

Snakes


An open drain system is a breeding place for flies, mosquitoes and organisms which cause diseases. The wastewater from sinks, toilets, laundries, showers goes down to the drains. The sight of an open drain is disgusting. The situation worsens in the rainy season when the drains start overflowing. So, it is better to keep the drains closed. Thus, it prevents the breeding of disease-causing organisms. Snakes will not breed in an open drain.
