What? You say kids don't get poisoned! An open bottle of diazinon, 25 percent emulsifiable concentrate, was responsible for the death of a two-year-old girl in Cleveland County, N. C. on July 3,1966. The mother of the deceased was spraying her residence for household insects. Following the process of mixing the spray she set the bottle down and left the room to get something. When she returned, she found that the child had drank some of the bottle’s contents. The child drank the insecticde at about 6;45 p.m. and was dead on arrival at the hospital at about 7:45 p.m. The coroner’s report stated that the caiise of the death was accidental poisoning. A six-month-old baby girl died in Baltimore, Maryland on Sept. 11, 1966 because she drank about 40 cc. of an emulsion containing 1.5 percent diazinon which had been placed in her nursing bottle by mistake. The white, milky emulsion was in a two-quart unlabeled glass container. The baby’s grandmother thought it was milk and fed it to the child.
