Yikes, I’ve spilled some DHMO on my hands! What do I do now?

Do you know the truth about DHMO?

Look at this web site and tell me if you still want to go swimming.

    It’s all in a name, isn’t it? In Michigan here I’m nearly surrounded by it. It does look nice just laying there. But you really do have to keep from breathing it.

    You think that’s bad – I get ~55.5M Hydroxic Acid coming out of my household plumbing!

    Ha! This one was old when I was in school. How nice that young people give us the opportunity to recycle the classics. My nephew the chemist has to face the challenge of DHMO every day in the lab. Poor guy!

    I think that the proper treatment for a DHMO spill is to flush the area with a large amount of water.
