- Glass
- Mice and chipmunks crawl into opened bottles and
get trapped inside, unable to get a footing on
the slippery glass to push themselves out through
the small opening. Also, broken glass can injure
people, pets and wildlife. - Other Types of Litter are Harmful
- Cigarette filters, cellophane wrappers and
Styrofoam cups, eaten by deer and other wildlife
can cause internal problems. - Shiny bottle caps or pop-tops may be eaten by
wildlife, including fish, injuring or killing
them. - Always set an example by not littering, no
matter where you are. - Keep your yard clean and free of things than can
blow into the street and become litter. - Whenever you visit a park or beach, carry out
what you bring in -- keep unwanted items in a bag
or backpack until you can put them in a litter
basket or public garbage can. - If your family puts recyclables in a bin at
curbside, tie up loose paper that could blow out.
