  • Patent number: 7238173
    Abstract: A tampon disposal system for efficiently and sanitarily removing and disposing of a soiled tampon. The tampon disposal system includes a housing having at least one wall, an inner cavity, a plurality of perforated edges and a cleansing wipe that is enclosed within the housing. Removal of the perforated edges from the housing creates an opening along each perforation thereby exposing the inner cavity of the housing and the cleansing wipe positioned therein. Upon removal of the cleansing wipe, the string attached to a soiled tampon is insertable through the openings of the housing whereby removal and disposal of the tampon can be achieved in a relatively sanitary and efficient manner.
