Properly Dispose of Pesticides
Did you know that if pesticides wash off our yards from rain or overwatering, they are toxic to the environment?
Testing has shown that even small amounts of commonly used pesticides may be lethal to living creatures. Here’s some options to consider:
- Try non-toxic alternatives for pest control.
- Take unwanted or unused pesticides to a household hazardous waste (HHW) collection center; find one in your area using Earth 911.
- Keep pesticides out of the trash and storm drains.
