[Histonet] slide disposal

[Mark J. Griffith]

Thank you Joyce -

The SlydEater pulverizes the glass slide and obliterates the label 
affixed to the slide. Units are available for both short term and 
long term rentals, as well as Least to Own.

If interested, visit our website at:

or by calling me directly at 800-233-3721.
