Ask Us | The dangers of button batteries and high-powered magnets

This week we talk to Nina Weir from Consumer Protection WA, with our regular reminder warning about button batteries – and also those little high powered-magnets that might be stuck on the fridge. To little children, they are bright, round and shiny and easily end up popped in the mouth and swallowed. Both products do enormous damage to our insides. Toys using button batteries must have a child-safe cover on them and Consumer Protection do regular checks in stores, but don’t assume, if a toy is in the shop, that it’s safe! If you think your child might have swallowed a battery or magnet, go to the Emergency Department as soon as possible. Listen to our podcast for more information and tips on what to do and what to look for.
