RODENTICIDES.....

With the mouse plague in western NSW continuing the Poisons Centre has been receiving lots of calls about accidental exposures to mouse and rat poisons.
Many rodenticide blocks or pellets contain a bittering agent to discourage accidental ingestion by children.
ALWAYS call the Poisons Centre on 131126 for further advice following any accidental exposures. Where possible obtain the brand name of the product as the ingredients and toxicity varies.
Try to keep rodenticide blocks and pellets out of reach and out of sight of children to reduce the risk of accidental exposures.
Discuss with your children the importance of not touching the rodent baits.
Only ever use rodenticides approved for use in domestic settings inside your home.
The Poisons Centre is available 24/7 on 131126 to answer any queries on human exposures.
Rodenticide are also very toxic to pets if ingested - contact your vet or the Animal Poisons Centre on 1300 TOX PET / 1300 869 738 for further advice.

The benefits of play has been well-documented, but are you aware that play is a powerful parenting tool? We can use play to teach lessons, heal and process emotions, and connect with our children’s hearts. Why is play so effective? Because children are wired to learn this way!

Let’s choose water as a drink! Drinking water regularly throughout the day keeps our body happy and healthy. Children should be encouraged to drink water and plain milk.
