WHAT IS MERCURY?
Mercury is a dense, silvery metal that remains liquid at room temperature and is considered harmful because the vapors are invisible and odorless at elevated levels. This can harm the cardiovascular, nervous, kidneys, and digestive tract. So, quick and safe mercury spill cleanup using emergency mercury spill kits to complete safe mercury disposal is critical to prevent illness. Given that even minor mercury spills can generate unsafe levels of mercury vapors that are not good to breathe, mercury spill cleanup should be left to the experts at AEG Environmental.
THE DANGERS OF MERCURY
Mercury spills have several detrimental and, in some cases, fatal dangers. At high levels, mercury may harm the brain and develop fetuses and kidneys. Plus, other organs can be impacted by mercury exposure:
IMPACT OF MERCURY ON THE HUMAN BRAIN:
- Mood changes, such as feeling nervous or tired
- Numbness in the feet and hands
- Trouble remembering
- Difficulty sleeping
- Trembling
- Muscle coordination problems
HOW MERCURY IMPACTS THE MOUTH:
- Swollen gums
- Metallic taste
- Excessive drooling or salivation
HOW LUNGS ARE AFFECTED BY MERCURY:
- Chest pain during breathing
- Coughing
- Lung damage
- Breath shortness
IMPACT OF MERCURY ON THE STOMACH AND INTESTINES:
- Upset stomach
- Appetite loss
- Nausea
- Diarrhea
HOW MERCURY AFFECTS THE SKIN:
- Skin peeling on the hands and feet
- Red, itchy rashes on the skin
Ultimately, mercury vapors have no warning signs, making inhalation highly dangerous in the workplace.
