Fortunately for most parents, their children are not harmed when the parents have a momentary lapse and aren’t supervising them for a short time. But how would parents respond if they suddenly turn around, and their toddler is holding a can of household aerosol insect killer?

Written by F.M. Fishel, and published by the UF Department of Agronomy, March 2013.
