Protect yourself and your family from home health hazards
Ventilate garage
Exhaust fumes from vehicles contain carbon monoxide (CO), a harmful gas that can penetrate into the house. Never leave a car idling in the garage.
Keep chemicals sealed
Stored chemicals or fuels can release potentially harmful chemicals into indoor air. It is a good idea to make sure all containers are tightly sealed and stored with other chemical products in an area that is not occupied, such as the garage.
Close doors
Keep adjoining doors from the garage to your home closed. Car exhaust contains CO and can enter your home through joining doors or cracks in the wall.
Store chemicals safely
Some household chemicals can cause poisoning. Read the label and follow instructions. Keep chemicals locked out of reach of children. Store chemicals in original containers, and contact your municipality to learn how to dispose of them safely.
Well done!
