Signs Your Home Contains Lead
/
Our goal is to protect every family and child from lead poisoning.
The greatest risk for lead exposure is found in homes built before 1978. If your home was built before 1940, there is an 87% chance lead exists in your house.
Between 1940-1959, 69% of homes contain lead, and from 1960-1977, 24% of homes pose a threat for lead poisoning.
The EPA has identified many areas lead can be found in a home, including windowsills, fences, even pipes and playgrounds. Don't let your children fall victim to lead poisoning.
