20 Cleaning plans need attention before installation if sites are:
21
22 * silty or clay soil
23 * a known infection risk (farms, etc.)
24 * scheduled for >5 retrievals per team, per day.

28 === **Interim Solution (Australia)** ===

30 For now, we recommend using disposable barrier bags if standard cleaning methods will be impractical. Nodes are installed inside bags to stop dirt getting into crevices. We've seen good results with 10-15um plastics (the thin type commonly used for produce).
31
32 We can help you check for suppliers that:
33
34 * comply with state and federal regulations
35 * perform effectively
36 * biodegrade completely in landfill.
