Safety tips offered
The fall chill is in the air,
which means gearing up for
hunting season. The experts at
the West Virginia Poison Center
(WVPC) recommend these pre-
cautions for hunters and their
families.
-Gun Maintenance
Gun cleaning products can be
dangerous if swallowed. Gun
bluing products, which protect a
gun from rust and corrosion, are
particularly harmful as they can
cause serious burns and other
toxic effects. Store these prod-
ucts in a locked cabinet away
from children. Children should
be kept out of the room when
prevent them from grabbing the
bottle when the user's back is
turned. Adults can avoid injury
while using these products by
wearing protective gloves and
washing hands after use. Make
sure to dispose of used bottles
and cleaning rags in a place
where children and pets cannot
get into them.
-Ammunition
A child who swallows lead
bullets is possibly at risk for
lead poisoning unless lead-free
bullets are used. Keep all am-
munition, guns, and reloading
supplies in a locked cabinet
away from children and wash
these products are being used to hands ter handling.

-Waterproofing Supplies
Waterproofing agents can
cause breathing difficulties if
used inappropriately and can be
toxic if swallowed. Use water-
proofing products in well venti-
lated areas away from children
and pets. Make sure the item
being treated is completely dry
before storing inside an en-
closed space.
-Carbon Monoxide
Carbon monoxide is an invis-
ible killer. Hunters can be ex-
posed to carbon monoxide if
they are using heating or cook-
ing devices in enclosed spaces
like a tent or portable trailer.
To prevent carbon monoxide
poisoning, use these devices in
places with appropriate ventila-
tion.
-Game Handling
After killing the game, field
dress properly then cool the
meat as soon as possible to de-
crease the risk of food poison-
ing. Be sure to cook all game
thoroughly and do not allow the
game to sit for prolonged peri-
ods without refrigeration.
-Poisoned? Not Sure?-Call the
medical experts at the West Vir-
ginia Poison Center at 1-800-
222-1222. Do not wait for
symptoms to appear.

Celebration held
Fellowsville Elementary students and staff took part in Red Ribbon Week to celebrate the
school's drug-free status. Each day of the week, students and staff took part in activities
to show support for a drug-free lifestyle. On Monday, students wore camouflage to show
that 'you wouldn't see them using drugs" on Tuesday, students wore their clothing inside
out to show that "drogs won't turn them the wrong way" on Wednesday, students "gave
drugs the boot" by wearing their favorite boots; on Thursday, students showed that "drugs
are silly" by wearing their silliest hats; finally on Friday, students were asked to wear red in
support of red ribbon week and each student signed a school-wide drug free banner.
