Once you're finished with your jack o'lantern, remember to dispose of it responsibly. You can do this by breaking it into small pieces and adding it to a compost bin or heap. If there’s any paint or artificial decorations, put these in the bin.
Pumpkins can harm wildlife, including hedgehogs, and disturb woodland soils. Let's protect nature this spooky season!
