Your uncle, Peter, has a problem with rats at his house. He is very careful not to waste any food. Although he keeps all leftover food in containers, it unfortunately attracts rats. He buys a pesticide from his local hardware store to kill the rats. National legislation prohibits the disposal of the container in which the pesticide is bought into a common waste collection system.

Knowing that you are a Consumer Law student, he approaches you to provide advice as to what he should do with the empty container. Advise Uncle Peter
