Be Smart about Storage

  • Store  personal care products and household products in their original, labeled containers
  • Read the labels on the chemical and products bottles and follow directions carefully.
  • Do not store chemicals in empty food or drink containers.
  • Store poisonous products away from food so there is no confusion.
  • Do not mix household products together (i.e., Ammonia with bleaches)
  • Install carbon monoxide (CO) detectors near bedrooms and on each floor of your home.
  • Do not store any household materials such as detergents, dish washing soap and furniture polish powders underneath the kitchen sink.
  • Do not store materials such as kerosene, car fuels and detergents in packages such as bottles of liquor, jug or anything that draws the child's attention.
  • Place the Poison Unit telephone number, 1-800-500-000, on or near your phone so it is easy to find in an emergency.
