What is contained in a spill kit?

A spill kit is specifically designed to address and manage hazardous material spills, particularly in the context of pesticides and other chemicals. The contents of a typical spill kit include absorbent materials, such as pads or granular products that can soak up liquids, as well as tools for clean-up, like shovels, brooms, and disposal bags. These items are crucial for effectively containing and cleaning up spills to minimize environmental impact and ensure safety.

While protective clothing and gloves are essential for worker safety and may be included in some spill kits, they are not the primary components aimed at spill management. Similarly, while chemicals for neutralization or various pesticide bottles could be related to spill response, they do not constitute the main purpose of a spill kit, which is to facilitate immediate clean-up efforts.
