Mr. Yuk is a poison warning symbol used by many poison centers in the United States.
Children are naturally curious.
They touch, smell and taste things as a natural part of learning. Your home is filled with many products that make life easier and more pleasant, such as cleaning supplies, cosmetics and medicines. Any of these products can poison a child who ingests, touches or inhales it. If a can or bottle has a Yuk sticker on it, it means that whatever is inside could hurt or harm a child. If a cabinet door has a Yuk sticker on it - your children must be taught that they may not open the cabinet because something inside the cabinet is very dangerous.
