CINCINNATI - You can get rid of some of your old electronics in an environmentally-friendly way during America Recycles Day in Cincinnati Tuesday.
Recycle your electronic waste and more at a one stop drop event. You can drop off electronic items in the parking lot of the Whole Foods Market's Rookwood Commons location. It runs from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesday.
Drop off hard to recycle items like e-waste, cell phones, No. 5 plastics, plastic bags and old pens. Local electronics recycler, 2TRG will provide the free recycling for a wide variety of electronic waste including computer monitors, audio equipment, printers and more.
TVs will be collected for a flat fee of $10 each (cash only) with a portion of the proceeds benefiting Keep Cincinnati Beautiful.
Local environmental organizations will be on hand to share new initiatives with participants and answer any questions about recycling.

The heat and humidity have returned to the region, and so has the ever despised backyard blood sucking pests. Whether flying through the air or dropping from a tree branch, mosquitos and ticks are in full force this Memorial Day weekend.
