How should expired Rescue™ Disinfectants be disposed of?

Rescue™ Disinfectants can safely and easily be disposed of, to minimize wear and tear on equipment and the environment.

  • Rescue™ Disinfectant Ready-to-Use Liquid: pour the liquid slowly down the drain with running water, leaving the water running for an extra 30 seconds.
  • Rescue™ Disinfectant Wipes: Due to the pathogen contamination and chemical substance on the wipes they should be discarded as solid waste.
  • Rescue™ Disinfectant Concentrate:
    • For small quantities (< 5 gallons), dilute the remaining product, then pour the diluted product slowly down the drain with running water, leaving the water running for an extra 1-2 minutes.
    • For larger quantities (> 5 gallons), please contact Customer Service directly for more information. You can call us at 1-800-387-7578, or email us at info@virox.com
