On the note of disposing properly:
To protect wildlife, it's been recommended by wildlife nonprofits to snip the straps of your face masks before disposing, to minimize the potential for it to harm an animal.

- dwaltrip 6y agoIf I place an item into a trash bin, what is the likelihood that it comes into contact with wildlife?
- hackily 6y agoMany things could happen to the mask, even if you disposed of it in a proper location. The trash bin could be tipped over or rummaged in by wildlife, for instance. When the trash collector comes, the trash bag could rip and the contents spill out. Strong winds might cause small and light objects like masks to fly out.
