Carbon Monoxide Gas: Yikes! It’s Indoors!
Colorless, odorless, and poisonous! With enough accumulated indoors, Carbon Monoxide gas (CO) can kill you. Though it sounds terrifying, a simple way to stay safe from the gas is to install a CO gas alarm in your home. People tend to overlook indoor sources of CO poisoning which can be found in
gas cookers
stoves, grills, and furnaces
cleaning products
Symptoms of poisoning are “flu-like” such as
dizziness
weakness
vomiting
According to a CNN news report, overexposure to CO gas led to large numbers of premature deaths in heavily populated areas in China, India, Bangladesh, Indonesia, and Nepal. CO poisoning puts everyone in the household at risk. But since babies are so vulnerable, let’s try not to burn more time from their future.
