You may not know it, but a number of household products and cleaners you use on a daily basis could be harming you. They may not appear to be harming you yet, but they do pose a serious risk to you and your family. Not all dangerous home products have warning labels, so it is important for you to familiarize yourself with which items are threats.
The most common, dangerous home products come in chemical form. Most cleaning solutions are toxic, and their bottles should be properly marked as such. Despite the high numbers of hazardous home chemicals, however, there are also a number of common home items that do not come in liquid form. As a homeowner, you should watch out for the following products:
- Mothballs
- Non-stick pans
- Pesticides
- Compact fluorescent light bulbs
- Air fresheners
- Flame retardants
- Carpet cleaners
- Many home cleaning supplies
The manufacturers of these products have the responsibility of labeling their goods with warning labels. Failure to alert their customers of known hazards associated with these items can hold them responsible for any injuries associated with proper use of their products.
If you have been harmed by a poorly labeled household product, then you may have the right to claim compensation from the responsible party. Contact the St. Petersburg personal injury lawyers of Beltz & Ruth, P.A. today at 800-931-4369 to speak with an attorney about your situation.
