Need some help - dangerous chemical problem

[xlar54]

Thanks. I knew checking them would be bad for the nose, so I covered up before opening. But it looks like there is hardly nothing left in terms of solid tablets - all yellow liquid. Naturally when you hear the term "explosive" you think of big balls of fire, but it doesnt quite sound like that from your example (still not to be taken lightly im sure). I think I will first try calling a local pool chemical place tomorrow, and if they cant help, and the local hazardous waste cant help, Ill do as you say and pour it into a metal bucket and let it sit.....away from the house.... Any other tips are appreciated. And yes - I will definitely be watching how much of this stuff I buy in the future!

Do NOT pour it into a metal bucket -- that mix will destroy most metals.

Better to just let it sit outside in the sun and air, and let it break down and ventilate away.
