Washing Liquid Capsules Safety

washing liquidParents of young children are being warned to keep washing detergent capsules away from children to avoid eye injuries.

Several manufacturers make the washing liquid capsules – we sometimes use them in our dishwasher – and they are becoming more popular. The packaging does indicate that all detergents should be handled with care whether it be liquid capsules or tablets.

Apparently, doctors at the Western Eye Hospital in London have seen a rise in the number of cases of eye injuries in children. Children who have played with the liquid capsules have accidently popped the capsules and the spilt detergent has managed to get in to their eyes. The chemicals can burn or cause permanent vision problems.

So prevention is better than cure – keep all detergents away from children and pets too.
