Hey @bigislandnow.com
here's a scoop. I am helping to spread the word for the Department of Agriculture and Biosecurity's pesticide disposal program. Official site, dab.hawaii.gov/pi/main/pest...

Warning sign with bold text in English and Spanish: “DANGER/PELIGRO PESTICIDES.” A red circle with a raised hand and a person wearing protective gear. Text below reads: “KEEP OUT / NO ENTRE.”
♻️Proper pesticide disposal is more than a good habit—it’s a matter of safety.
Illegal dumping and poor storage can harm people, wildlife, and water sources.
Do your part: dispose of pesticides responsibly. Protect our communities and environment.

A water damaged and stained cardboard pesticide container labeled “Chloropicrin Warning Agent” by Dow AgroSciences. The box shows visible wear and tear, with hazard warnings including “Danger/Peligro” and a skull-and-crossbones symbol.
Improper pesticide storage puts people, the environment, and your business at risk. Follow the label for storage requirements—damaged or leaking containers like this one are unsafe. Let's protect our communities. ✅ #PesticideSafety #FollowTheLabel #PesticideDisposalProgram
Cartoon of a hand holding a can of bug spray pointed at a cockroach. The cockroach is holding a lit match and says, “Go ahead buddy! But if I’m going down, you’re going with me!”
That Friday feeling when it’s you vs. the week… and both of you are going down together. 😂🔥
Happy Aloha Friday

Cartoon of a man in a full hazmat suit walking a dog also dressed in protective gear. The man holds a can labeled “Tick Spray.” Text above reads, “Enjoying the great outdoors…” The scene humorously exaggerates concerns about ticks and pesticide use.

A cartoon-style drawing of a gray mouse confidently walking away from a large wooden mousetrap that has been triggered but did not catch it. The mouse is smiling smugly, with the caption above reading, “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.” The image is being used humorously to promote awareness about the dangers of old pesticides.
What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger…
Except old pesticides😬
Don’t be like this mouse — get rid of them before they’re a cartoon trap waiting to strike.
Dispose responsibly!
