Cleanup Steps for Hard Surfaces

1. Carefully scoop up glass fragments and powder
using stiff paper or cardboard and place debris and
paper/cardboard in a glass jar with a metal lid. If a
glass jar is not available, use a sealable plastic bag.
NOTE: Since a plastic bag will not prevent the mercury
vapor from escaping, remove the plastic bag(s) from the
home after cleanup.
2. Use sticky tape, such as duct tape, to pick up any
remaining small glass fragments and powder. Place
the used tape in the glass jar or plastic bag.
3. Wipe the area clean with damp paper towels or
disposable wet wipes. Place the towels in the glass
jar or plastic bag.
NOTE: Vacuuming of hard surfaces during cleanup is
not recommended unless broken glass remains after all
other cleanup steps have been taken. It is possible that
vacuuming could spread mercury containing powder or
mercury vapor, although available information on this
problem is limited.
If vacuuming is needed to ensure removal of all broken
glass, keep the following tips in mind:
• Keep a window or door to the outdoors open.
• Vacuum the area where the bulb was broken using
the vacuum hose, if available; and remove the
vacuum bag (or empty and wipe the canister) and
seal the bag/vacuum debris, and any materials used
to clean the vacuum, in a plastic bag.
• Promptly place all bulb debris and cleanup materials,
including vacuum cleaner bags, outdoors in a trash
container or protected area until materials can be
disposed of properly.
• Check with your local or state government about
disposal requirements in your area. Some states and
communities require fluorescent bulbs (broken or
unbroken) be taken to a local recycling center.
• Wash your hands with soap and water after
disposing of the jars or plastic bags containing bulb
debris and cleanup materials.
• Continue to air out the room where the bulb was
broken and leave the H&AC system shut off, as
practical, for several hours.
