poison symbol

Crossbones death mark

A poison symbol is a graphic warning on labels indicating toxic contents.

The most recognizable is the skull and crossbones, though modern standards often use a black diamond with a skull or the "Mr.

Yuk" green face for household products.

Check for a poison symbol before storing chemicals near food.
