What to Do

• Buy only what you need. Long-term storage of toxic chemicals can be dangerous.
• Store chemicals in safe places away from children, pets and fire sources.
• Recycle products when you can.

What Not to Do

• Don’t buy toxic products if you won’t use them.
• Don’t put toxins in the trash, down the drain, or in the gutter.
• Don’t mix products. Never mix bleach with cleaners because toxic gases could result.
