Proper sample disposal?

[surf_buddy]

I'm wondering if anyone has information on the best was to dispose of the chemicals from used test kits and samples? Are most safe enough to just flush down the drain or is greater care needed? Thanks!

Most can just be diluterd 10:1 and flushed as long as they are not Mecury based

Thanks Boomer.. I've never seen anyone address this and I couldn't find any archived posts on the topic. Much appriciated.

Very conscientious to ask the question though. I've wondered once or twice, but never even worried about just pouring it down the sink. Now I know it's safe. Thanks for asking!!
