who might come in contact with<br />
the disinfectant are wearing the<br />
appropriate protective equipment, if<br />
applicable.<br />
Wash up: Make certain you and<br />
all employees who have used<br />
the disinfectant wash their hands<br />
with soap and water for at least<br />
20 seconds after working with the<br />
disinfectant, even if gloves or other<br />
protective clothing during application<br />
of the product were worn.<br />
Dilute with care: Follow all<br />
instructions regarding the dilution<br />
of disinfectant with water as stated<br />
on the instruction label. Use water<br />
at room temperature unless stated<br />
otherwise on the label. Also, do<br />
not mix disinfectants with anything<br />
other than water.<br />
✔ Make the call: It is vital<br />
that any who might be exposed<br />
to a disinfectant product through<br />
inhalation or ingestion, or who<br />
exhibits exposure symptoms,<br />
reports the incident to you or the<br />
manager who can then call and<br />
seek medical attention as needed.<br />
CONCLUSION<br />
Disinfectants are very effective at<br />
killing harmful germs, bacteria viruses,<br />
including the COVID-19 and other<br />
dangerous pathogens, but it is absolutely<br />
necessary that you and your employees<br />
carefully read the instructions<br />
on the label.<br />
There is good money to be made by<br />
detail businesses that can properly disinfect<br />
and sanitize interiors, but you must<br />
know what you are doing. You must use<br />
the correct products for the job, and<br />
know how to use them properly. This all<br />
takes time and effort and training.<br />

SWALLOWED POISONS<br />
Drink a small amount of water or milk immediately,<br />
before getting Poison Control assistance, if:<br />
✔ The product swallowed is burning, irritating<br />
or caustic, AND<br />
✔ The person is conscious, not having convulsions,<br />
and able to swallow.<br />
IN THE EYE<br />
It's important that you irrigate (rinse the exposed<br />
eyes) immediately. Every second matters and a<br />
delay could result in loss of sight. Remove contact<br />
lenses. Use lots of room temperature water and<br />
irrigate for at least 15 to 20 minutes.<br />
Adults and older children may find it easier to<br />
hop in the shower. Wrap young children in a towel<br />
and let water from the faucet in the kitchen sink<br />
run over the eye - or slowly pour water from a<br />
pitcher. Let the water hit the bridge of the nose<br />
and gently run into the eyes rather than pouring<br />
the water directly into the eye. Important: Irrigate<br />
for at least 15 to 20 minutes. Encourage blinking.<br />
After the 15 to 20 minute irrigation, let the eye<br />
rest while you call Poison Control for additional<br />
guidance. If irritation, pain, visual problems,<br />
redness, swelling, or tearing persist an hour after<br />
irrigation is started, you'll need an urgent ophthalmic<br />
exam. That means a trip to an urgicenter<br />
or emergency room right away, unless an eye<br />
doctor can see you immediately. If the symptoms<br />
procedures to call Poison<br />
Control or summon an<br />
ambulance.<br />
But before you contact<br />
Poison Control, whether<br />
by phone or online, there<br />
DETAIL DOCTOR<br />
are some quick first aid<br />
measures that make a<br />
difference if accomplished<br />
within seconds to minutes<br />
of the poison exposure. Be<br />
familiar with these steps.<br />
are severe, don't wait an hour - go straight to an<br />
emergency room after irrigating.<br />
ON THE SKIN<br />
It's important that you rinse the exposed<br />
skin immediately. Remove contaminated<br />
clothing first (that's clothing with a spill). Every<br />
second matters. Don't delay. Use lots of room<br />
temperature running water and rinse for at least<br />
15 minutes. For large spills, adults and older<br />
children may find it easiest to hop in the shower.<br />
Mild hand soap can be used to remove material<br />
that sticks to the skin. Important: Rinse for at<br />
least 15 minutes.<br />
After the 15 minute rinse, call Poison Control<br />
for additional guidance. If blistering, large or<br />
deep burns, pain, redness, or swelling worsen<br />
or persist, you will need to see a doctor right<br />
away. But first call the poison specialists at Poison<br />
Control to see whether a trip to an urgicenter<br />
or emergency room is urgent or necessary.<br />
If the symptoms are severe, go straight to an<br />
emergency room after rinsing. Don't wait.<br />
INHALED<br />
It's important that you move to fresh air<br />
immediately. Stay away from all toxic fumes and<br />
gases. Thoroughly ventilate the involved area.<br />
After moving to fresh air, use <strong>web</strong>POISON-<br />
CONTROL to get specific recommendations<br />
online, or call 1-800-222-1222 for guidan<br />
