Hazardous material, empty containers and soaked items go into sealed drums or bags. Hard surfaces are cleaned, and porous materials that soaked up the substance are removed.

Get everyone away from the area, including pets. Call 911 if anyone is in danger, or Poison Control with exposure questions. Do not touch unknown containers or try to wash a spill away. Then call a cleanup team for next steps.
