Identify Hazardous Pesticides

With the presence of pesticides, hazardous materials protocols must be followed to properly identify, dispose, and clean waste at sites. At an average cost of $40,000 for site cleanup (before hazardous material disposal) properly identifying hazardous materials is important not only for safety, but for efficiently using funds for cleanup efforts.
