01

Why the pipe objects

Concentrated nutrients can pollute waterways, upset wastewater treatment and overload septic systems.

02

Do this instead

Use only at the label rate, share usable product or follow local household-hazardous-waste guidance.

03

Already did it?

Do not add another chemical or try to neutralize it. Follow the label’s spill directions and contact your local wastewater or pesticide authority.
