有毒/强烈气味紧急情况

Most toxic/strong odors emergencies result from everyday household chemicals. Toxic 和 strong odors can also result from a utility disruption, or a mechanical/electrical problem. While the risk of toxic/strong odors from chemical accident is slight, knowing how to h和le household products containing hazardous materials or chemicals can reduce the risk of injury.

在有毒/强烈气味或化学品紧急情况发生之前

It is critical to store household chemicals in places where children cannot access them. Remember that products such as aerosol cans of hair spray 和 deodorant, 指甲油和洗甲水, toilet bowl cleaners 和 furniture polishes all fall into the category of hazardous materials.

危险家用化学品可能包括:

清洁产品
农药
汽车产品，如防冻液或机油
Miscellaneous items like batteries, mercury thermometers 和 florescent light bulbs/fixtures
Flammable products like kerosene, home heating oil, propane tanks 和 lighter fluid
Workshop or painting supplies such as paint thinners 和 turpentine
Lawn 和 garden products like herbicides 和 insecticides

The following are guidelines for buying 和 storing hazardous household chemicals safely:

Keep products containing hazardous materials in their original containers 和 never remove the labels unless the container is corroding. Corroding containers should be repackaged 和 clearly labeled.
不要在食品容器中储存有害产品.
Never mix household hazardous chemicals or waste with other products. Incompatibles, such as chlorine bleach 和 ammonia, may react, ignite or explode.
Never use hair spray, cleaning solutions, paint products, or pesticides near an open flame
立即清理泄漏的化学物质. Allow the fumes in the rags to evaporate outdoors, then dispose of the rags by wrapping them in a newspaper 和 placing them in a sealed plastic bag in your trash can.
正确处置有害物质. 如有任何问题，请致电校园保安.
Save the national poison control number in your cell phone 和 post it next to l和lines in your home (800) 222-1222.
