The small containers I get from REI do a great job at containing the mess. They also happen to be somewhat waterproof. I was just stating this fact because I use them for other things too.

Although PJ cottonballs will light if they get wet I don't necessarily think keeping them dry is bad. Besides a waterproof container will contain the mess as-well-as or better than a non-waterproof container.
