Many household hazardous
products, such as oven
cleaners, paint removers,
bug killers, solvents, and
drain cleaners, found in
homes contain chemicals
that are potentially harmful to both people and the
environment. Disposal of
these products requires
special attention. Household hazardous products
should never be poured
on the ground, into gutters, or down storm drains.
Everything that goes into our
storm drains makes its way
straight to our rivers and
streams and eventually finds
their way to where we fish,
what we drink and where
we swim. Storm water
pollution is our biggest
source of water pollution.
