My husband broke a CFL a few months ago(I am thinking probably 9 months or so) and we didn't really clean it up by doing anything special. We just picked up the broken glass and threw it away. At the time, we didn't have any idea that there were special precautions to take with these bulbs, as they were what was in our apartment when we moved in. We have three children (6yrs, 4 yrs and 7 months) and a cat. Should we be concerned at this point or would all the mercury be gone by now?
