Question

What should be done with Shemitah etrogs that I used during the holiday, and now they are starting to spoil?

Answer

Once they have completely spoiled, it is permitted to dispose of them in the trash. However, as long as they are still edible, they must be kept. They can be discarded in a place where they will spoil on their own, [such as in a fallow field, where people do not tread].
