If you think your home has high <br />levels of lead: <br />• Get your young children tested for lead, even if <br />they seem healthy. <br />• Wash children's hands, bottles, pacifiers, and toys <br />often. <br />• Make sure children eat healthy, low-fat foods. <br />• Get your home checked for lead hazards. <br />• Regularly clean floors, window sills, and other <br />surfaces. <br />• Wipe soil off shoes before entering house. <br />• Talk to your landlord about fixing surfaces with <br />peeling or chipping paint. <br />• Take precautions to avoid exposure to lead dust <br />when remodeling or renovating (call 1-800-424- <br />LEAD for guidelines). <br />• Don't use abelt-sander, propane torch, heat gun, <br />dry scraper, or dry sandpaper on painted surfaces <br />that may contain lead. <br />• Don't try to remove lead-based paint yourself. <br />~~ ~ ~~ /6 <br />
