— Use personal protective clothing and gloves when
collecting waste pesticides containers.
— The burial site must be chosen carefully, so that
there can be no risk of pollution to surface or
ground water. The site must be well away from the
living area. Containers and waste should be buried
at a depth of at least 1 metre. The area used should
be fenced or marked with warning signs.
— Obtain assistance from local agencies and suppliers
in establishing proper treatment mechanisms for
used containers.
