- Wash your hands after handling it.

- If someone has been hurt or the product has failed, report it to Trading Standards through the Citizens Advice consumer service.
Why it matters. Limits on substances such as lead, cadmium, phthalates and formaldehyde exist because of their effects on health over time. Children are more exposed because they chew and handle products.
