CFLs are becoming more common in homes and at work. They use less electricity and have a positive impact on the global climate. However, they do contain small amounts of mercury.
Here is information you should know when a:
CFL burns out:
It may smoke a bit and the plastic base may blacken. This is normal. Except for replacement, no action required. Also, you will need to recycle it. Do not dispose of it with the general trash items.
CFL breaks:
- Open a window to allow the room to air out for 5-10 minutes. Concentrations of mercury will likely approach zero in an hour or so.
- People and pets should leave the room.
- Turn off forced air heaters and air conditioning.
- Collect broken glass and visible powder with stiff cardboard. Wipe up small particles with sticky tape or a damp paper towel. Wrap in paper, to ensure no one gets cut, and dispose of with ordinary trash.
