If you have Tide Pods or other brands of detergent packets around your house and you have small children, keep reading. Children are attracted to the bright packets. They look like candy. More than 250 children have tried to eat these pods, causing severe vomiting and diarrhea. The Alabama Poison Center stated that 12 calls, since February, have come in involving detergent packets. Three suffered eye exposure and nine others ingested the detergent.
Proctor & Gamble announced Friday it will change the design of the packets within the next two weeks and put a double latch lid on the tubs.
The number to the Alabama Poison Center is 1-800-222-1222.
