| Dry ice is a skin and eye irritant, use gloves to handle. Dry ice is harmful if eaten or swallowed. Avoid contact with skin, mouth, eyes, and clothing. May cause severe frostbite or burns. If eaten or if frostbite occurs, seek medical help immediately. Dry ice makes carbon dioxide as it sublimates (melts.) Do not place dry ice in air-tight containers as they may explode. Only use or store dry ice in open or well-ventilated areas. Otherwise a lack of oxygen (suffocation) can occur causing serious injury or death.
