Poisons are lurking in almost every corner of your home. You can be exposed to poisons in the form of cleaning supplies, medicine or personal care items.

Last year, poison control centers helped more than two million emergency callers. More than half of the calls were concerning children under the age of six. Keep the number of the Poison Control Center handy so you'll always know who to call in case of emergencies.

American Association of Poison Control Centers

Poison centers handle one poison exposure every 14 seconds, on average. Almost 90 percent of all poison exposures occur in the home.
