Chemical and Toxic Waste Cleanup Frequently Asked Questions in High Ridge, MO
What are the health risks of chemical exposure?
Chemicals can irritate or burn skin and eyes, harm the lungs and poison people who swallow them. Some give off fumes or catch fire. Call 911 in an emergency and Poison Control for exposure questions, and tell them the product name if known.
What if a spill reaches soil or a drain?
Keep people away and call 911 if there is danger. Cleanup teams place barriers and absorbents to stop the spread and remove contaminated soil or materials where needed. Local fire and health officials can say what must be reported.
What do cleanup teams use on a chemical spill?
It depends on the substance. Teams choose absorbent materials, tools and cleaning products to match it, and they follow the maker's safety data sheet. Household products are not mixed together. Ask what the team plans to use and why.
Can I clean up a chemical spill myself?
Small spills of familiar household products may be manageable with the label's directions. Unknown, large or hazardous spills are not. Never mix products. If in doubt, leave the area, keep people and pets out and call 911 or Poison Control.
