June 20, 2024, Press Release from the Allen Soil and Water Conservation District: The average American home is full of potentially hazardous waste. When certain household chemicals are not used up properly, they become household hazardous waste. Many homeowners don’t realize that these products may contain the same chemicals as strictly regulated industrial wastes and pose the same threat to the environment and our health. Pesticides, paint thinner, oven cleaner, and floor polish are all examples of some of the common household chemicals that are considered hazardous because they are toxic, explosive, flammable, or corrosive.
