Antifreeze products for automotive use containing propylene<unk>  in place of<unk><unk>  are available, and are generally considered safer to use, as it possesses an unpleasant taste in contrast to the perceived "sweet" taste of toxic<unk><unk> -based coolants, and produces only lactic acid in an animal's body, as their muscles do when exercised. When using antifreeze products containing<unk><unk> , recommended safety measures include: * Cleaning up any spill immediately and thoroughly. Spills may be cleaned by sprinkling cat litter, sand or other absorbent material directly on the spill. Once fully absorbed, while wearing protective gloves, the material may be scooped into a plastic bag, sealed and disposed. The spill area may be scrubbed with a stiff brush and warm, soapy water. The soapy water is not recommended to be drained in a storm drain. * Checking vehicles regularly for leaks. * Storing antifreeze in clearly marked original sealed containers, in areas that are inaccessible to pets or small children. * Keeping pets and small children away from the area when draining the car radiator. * Disposing of used antifreeze only by taking to a service station. * If antifreeze is placed in toilets, ensuring the lid is down and the door closed.
