Do not mix different products. Often, mixing creates poisonous gases. Use safety locks on cabinets, and store household chemicals out of reach of small children. Avoid storing products in cabinets close to the ground. Watch children closely when you are using these products.
Most poisonings happen while the product is being used.
Return products to their original storage place immediately after use. Wear protective clothing when using spray products and pesticides. The clothing should include long sleeves, pants, gloves, socks, and shoes. Avoid areas that recently have been sprayed with pesticides. Pesticides are absorbed easily through the skin and can be quite poisonous.
