Home & Domestic Hazards
Gas leaks, carbon monoxide, chemical cleaning mixtures, and quiet indoor hazards.
Carbon Monoxide, Quietly Ruining Everyone's Afternoon
“You cannot smell carbon monoxide; if your alarm beeps or multiple people feel flu-like indoors, get outside into fresh air immediately.”
EVACUATE EVERYONE TO OUTDOOR FRESH AIR IMMEDIATELY: Carbon monoxide is invisible and odorless. Move all occupants and pets into open air immediately.
Cleaning Products Have Formed an Alliance
“Leave the room immediately into fresh air, never pour water into the reacting bucket, and call Poison Control / 911/112.”
EVACUATE ROOM IMMEDIATELY TO FRESH AIR: Mixing bleach with acids or ammonia produces lethal chlorine or chloramine gas. Inhale zero fumes and leave door open.
Gas, Noticeably Existing Indoors
“If your house smells like rotten eggs, operate zero switches, leave doors open behind you, and call dispatch from outside.”
NO SWITCHES, PHONES, OR OPEN FLAMES: Do not operate light switches, doorbells, appliances, or mobile phones inside the gas-filled area (sparks trigger explosions).
Someone Ate Something They Really Should Not Have
“Secure the container, call Poison Control or 911/112 immediately, and never induce vomiting or give milk.”
SPIT OUT RESIDUE & RINSE MOUTH: Spit out any remaining substance in mouth, rinse with a small sip of water, and keep original packaging/container.
