Peter, thank you! *I'll be sure to check anything else I might use,

It helps to understand a bit of chemistry. Your Magic Erasers are made
of:

Formaldehyde-Melamine-Sodium bisulfite copolymer

Seeing that mouthful on paper is a bit intimidating considering the
toxicity of formaldehyde and melamine as proven out so recently. But
just as Sodium and Chlorine in their pure, uncombined states are
pretty nasty chemicals, when combined they are remarkable stable and
inert. *BUT* the lesson to be taken from this is that the magic
erasers *MUST NOT* be disposed of by fire or around strong oxidizing
or reducing compounds - in your house that would include ammonia,
Drano, bleach, oven cleaners, and so forth that will cause the
ingredients to be released.
