Agreed. That is an old DDVP pest strip - we still have some buried in
our rather inaccessible light fixtures here...................

John -

 

>From the stains at the bottom of the white cardboard, it appears to be
an old DDVP (Vapona) resin strip in an enclosure.  It's very old and no
longer volatilizing the pesticide, dichlorvos, into the air.  It can be
safely discarded into the regular trash.
