Like many other substances, cannabis is harmful to children and pets. Make your home a safe environment where children cannot access cannabis products in any form. Safe storage can help lower the risk of accidental ingestion.
Store it Locked!
Be safe. Remember to:
- Keep cannabis in a secure and locked place. Cannabis products should be out of sight, and out of reach of children and pets to avoid accidental ingestion.
- Store cannabis products in their original containers and keep the label. Labels on cannabis products from licensed cannabis establishments will have important information, including how much THC is in the product.
- Consider using a safe or lockbox with a combination lock or keypad.
Make a list of cannabis products in your home. Knowing exactly what cannabis products you have in your home can help with medical treatment in case of accidental ingestion. - Clean up after using marijuana, including ground flower, crumbs, stems, lighters, and matches.
