What is this? A doorstop alarm is a small alarm that sits under a door to make noise if someone opens it. Some of these alarms have too much lead in the metal parts.

What's happening? The lead in the alarms can harm the environment. These alarms were made in China.

Does this affect me? If you own one of these alarms in Sweden, it could be a problem for the environment.

What should I do? Stop using the alarm and ask your local store or a waste center how to throw it away safely.
