How should unwanted household pesticides be discarded?
If possible, use pesticide products according to label directions until the containers are empty. Triple rinse empty containers with water and dispose of them with regular household waste. Or call your local waste management district and ask about disposal of toxic and hazardous materials in your area. Many communities have special days for picking up toxic household wastes such as pesticides.
