Question from AmyJo
My mother-in-law gave me an old bottle of Scotch Gard Fabric Protector to use on my son’s new area rug. I have researched and found out that this is a very dangerous product that can be fatal and is very bad for the envoronment. I need to dispose of it but don’t know the safe way to do that. Can you give me advice on what to do with this old, unsafe can?

Call your local Hazardous Waste Disposal service. Your county Solid Waste agency should be able to direct you. They should have some place you can drop it off between Hazardous Waste Disposal Collection Days.
