According to the American Association of Poison Control centers, millions of people are unintentionally poisoned every year and children under age six are at the greatest risk. As a leading provider of home security systems, and an advocate for life safety, we wanted to do something to reduce this alarming statistic.
Here are some things to remember:
- Store all medicines and household products in the original containers.
- Use child-resistant packages for medicines and potentially dangerous household products.
- Lock medicines and products out of sight and reach of children
- Follow product label warnings about not mixing different products, ventilating the area, or wearing gloves.
