NEW HOUSEHOLD CHEMICAL AGENCY
WEB SITE FOR CHILDREN


EPA has created a new interactive web site, "Learn About Chemicals Around Your House," to teach children about ordinary household pesticide products that may contain harmful chemicals. The web site includes information about toxic substances stored in different rooms in the house, and answers commonly asked questions on safe use and storage of these pesticides and other toxic products. The site also contains educational games, and tells children what to do if accidents occur. The site is available at: https://www.epa.gov/opptintr/kids/hometour/index.htm
