Lead Paint Poisoning...

   Lead poisoning is the greatest environmental health threat to children under the age of 6. Poisoning occurs from swallowing lead (i.e. lead paint chips) or from breathing lead paint dust. Even small amounts of chipped lead paint or lead dust can be dangerous to children. Children face the great risks because their growing bodies absorb lead more easily than adult bodies do.

   Millions of American children are affected by lead poisoning. Children, who live in old, poorly maintained housing or in housing that has undergone renovation, face the greatest risk. Children exposed to flaking or peeling paint chips face the greatest risk of lead disease.

   If your building was built before 1978 it is very possible that lead paint was used. Peeling paint is a clear signal that lead paint may have been used in your home. If this is the case we would recommend that you or your children have a blood-lead test. A blood lead test is the only accurate way to diagnose lead poisoning.
