Warning sign - yellow triangle
Poison Signs
A poison sign warns that a substance can kill or seriously harm if swallowed, breathed in or absorbed through the skin. The skull and crossbones on a yellow triangle is the familiar symbol. These printable poison signs cover danger poison, toxic material, poison gas, a store sign, a keep out of reach of children notice, a bait-laid warning and a plain red POISON sign. Choose the one that fits, print at A5, A4 or A3, and fix it where people see it before they reach the poison.

Questions
Is a poison sign the same as the product label?
No. Product labels follow separate rules; these signs mark places.
Do I need a sign for rat bait?
Rules on rodenticide use and signage vary by user and setting. Check current guidance.
Where should the sign go?
On the door or container, at eye level, so it is seen before access.
