Test to see whether a carbon monoxide detector works.
Reason: a working CO detector can alert your family to a colorless, odorless, deadly gas and prevent poisoning. (Test monthly and replace batteries/units per manufacturer; install on every level and near sleeping areas.)
Why the others are wrong: ensuring firearms are loaded is dangerous — they should be unloaded, locked, and stored separately from ammunition. Storing medicine on a bottom shelf makes it accessible to children — keep meds locked and out of reach. Transferring chemicals to unlabeled containers is hazardous — keep them in their original, labeled containers.
