If a pesticide is stolen, you must notify Ontario's Spills Action Centre immediately.

A theft of pesticide creates a real risk of environmental harm and potential misuse, so reporting to the Spills Action Centre is required immediately. The SAC handles spills, discharges, or threatened releases of hazardous substances to air, land, or water, 24/7. A stolen pesticide qualifies as a situation that could lead to a release, so quick reporting helps responders assess risk, secure the site, and prevent damage. The obligation isn’t about value or whether it’s in transit—it's about responding to a potential release of a hazardous substance.
