Caldwell Co. Pesticide Collection Day - May 19, 10am - 2pm

A pesticide disposal day will be held Thursday, May 19 from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm at the Caldwell Ag Center / Public Library. This will provide an opportunity for farmers, gardeners, and homeowners to dispose of any unwanted pesticides (insecticide, herbicide, fungicide, etc.) free of charge. The collection is only for labeled pesticides, other house hold hazardous waste will not be accepted. If containers are leaking or fragile, place them in a five gallon bucket with absorbent material such as cat litter or sawdust. Do not transport pesticides in the front of a truck or car. If you have containers larger than five gallons or if you have questions about this pesticide disposal day, please call the Caldwell Extension Center at 828-757-1290 or email Seth_nagy@ncsu.edu
