According to many University Lab Procedures any spill over 500 mL should be left alone and contact proper cleanup authorities. In smaller cases it is best to use Chemical Absorbant Pads or if small enough even paper towel which should be placed into its own plastic bag, place that bag into another plastic bag and then must be properly disposed as a chemical waste DO NOT PUT INTO REGULAR TRASH.
