Do you know CFL lightbulbs have Mercury in them? What do you do if one breaks? - JohnNeffDC - 06-14-2011
Did you know that CFL light bulbs - the curly ones - have Mercury vapor in them? The Environmental Protection Agency has a website telling us how to handle a break in the house. It's not as simple as sweeping up broken glass. Please take a minute to read information on the EPA link.
Follow the link and under the "Around the house" section click on "CFL light bulb warning."
