National Poison Prevention Week

Practice "safe cleaning" during National Poison Prevention Week, March 20-26, 2005.

We often forget that household cleaning products can be poisonous. Cleaning products are used safely by millions of consumers every single day. But it is important to understand the proper use of products - and to always use them with safety in mind.

Here are some safety tips:

  • DO schedule routine cleaning around the kids' routines, such as nap time or when they're not around.
  • DON'T be distracted when you are cleaning. Children act fast and can get hold of a product in a surprisingly short time - be it through accidental ingestion or bodily exposure (e.g. eye, skin).
  • DON'T ever leave cleaning buckets containing liquid unattended. Besides the obvious dangers of spilling, slipping, and sipping, there's the fact that toddlers are "top heavy." If they topple into a bucket, they could drown, even in a very small amount of liquid.
  • DON'T ever leave children unattended around cleaning products. If you need to answer the doorbell or the phone, take the child with you.
  • DO call 1-800-222-1222 for poison-related emergencies. It's the Poison Control Center's nationwide toll-free hotline, open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

For more information about safe cleaning, visit the Soap and Detergent Association website at www.cleaning101.com.
