🎃 Spooktacular Safety Alert from the Davie County Health and Human Services! 🍬

This Halloween, we want to share an important safety reminder for parents and guardians as your children go trick-or-treating.

We are seeing an increasing number of THC-infused edible products (containing cannabis) designed to look almost identical to popular, brand-name candies, cookies, and other snacks. These products often have brightly colored packaging that is intentionally appealing to children.

If your child accidentally consumes a THC-laced product, call the Poison Control Center immediately at 1-800-222-1222 or call 911.

Have a fun, safe, and healthy Halloween! 👻
