What do I do if I find something during a clean-up that I can't identify?

The first place to look is in the marine debris manual

Identifying your mystery item

Step 1

Check the Marine Debris ID Manual

Step 2

Use Google Lens (or a similar app) to get some clues about what it might be

Step 3

Tag us in your post on social media or email the team, and we'll use our in-house marine debris experts and community to help you identify it. If you're using the AMDI app, make sure to enter the item as an "unspecified item" and include a photo.
