Other Added - At Least 40 Household Products Can Poison Your Child: Lock 'Em Up!
Two weeks ago my daughter, Christy, and I were having a conversation. She stated that most girls have the kind of mom who share a spa day with them, who invite them to go get their nails done together or try out a new hairstyle.We both laughed at her words, because I was opposite from this kind of mom. In fact, my daughter ended the conversation with the statement, "Instead I get a mom who wants to save the world. And on top of it you dragged me into doing it t

According to the National Safety Council, more than 50 percent of over a million poisoning incidents each year involve children under six years of age.
The Environmental Protection Agency urges everyone to lock up pesticides and other household chemicals in a high cabinet out of the reach of children. In a childhood poison prevention program, EPA and the American Association of Poison Control Centers send the simple message "Lock It Up" to adults everywhere.
The campaign also publicizes the national toll-free poison center phone number 1-800-222-1222 for immediate help if a child may have been poisoned.
So many poisons!
Over 75 percent of poisoned children swallow the toxic substance or item involved, and in most poisonings, the substance is something found around almost every home: prescription drugs, non-prescription pain killers, vitamins, cosmetics, and personal care and cleaning products. A large portion of poisonings also involve house plants, tobacco products and alcohol.
Check your home for toxic products or items a child can reach:
- Bathroom: medicines, toilet cleaners, antibacterial cleaners, air fresheners, drain cleaners, mold and mildew remover, and some cosmetics.
- Kitchen: glass cleaner, antibacterial cleaner, dishwashing detergent, all-purpose cleaner, insect sprays, oven cleaner, and ant or roach baits.
- Living Room: flea collars, rug or carpet cleaners, furniture polish, cigarette or cigar butts in ash trays, and alcoholic beverages.
- Bedroom: total release insect foggers, air fresheners, and moth balls.
- Laundry Room: all-purpose cleaner, inspect sprays, chlorine bleach, woodstains and finishes, and laundry detergents.
- Garage: motor oil, windshield washer fluid, oil-based and latex paints, auto batteries, antifreeze, spot-on pesticides to control fleas and ticks on pets.
- Back Yard: weed killers, pool chemicals including algicides and chlorine, baits for rodent control, insect repellents, and some new bug zappers.

The National Poison Prevention Week Council recommends:
- Keep all household chemical products and medicines out of reach and out of sight of youngsters, preferably locked up when not in use. Medicines and household chemicals on kitchen counters or bathroom surfaces are very accessible to young hands. Make sure any medicines visitors may bring into your home are kept safely away from children.
