Ciggy butts can be deadly to animals and small kids also.
Little known fact but all the toxins are in the fiberglass after being
smoked.

Well, not all, or smoking would not introduce so much harmful
ingredients into the lungs, causing all sorts of nasty unhealthy
conditions and eventually killing you.
I didn't know the tips were fibre glass now:
when I was about seven, I found a pipe on the beach and took it home.
We had some Royal Navy sailors lodging with us then (everyone did, as the
Navy paid out a weekly sum for their rent. ) and they all smoked their
duty free cigarettes. I solemnly collected the contents of all the
overflowing ashtrays and stripped the paper off and collected the tobacco
in a tin to put in the pipe andsmoke. Some few had tips and just out
of curiosity I broke some
open. There was some stuff like cotton wool and of course it was light brown
and gave out a not unpleasant smell.
That apartment, when the windows were closed against the cold, was filled
with smoke and I was breathing it into my little lungs. Did it do me
any harm?
Not a bit. No breathing problems,and in my teenage years, before I began
smoking, I could easily ride scores of miles on my bicycle.
