Are outlet plugs safe?

Outlet Plugs

Outlet plugs are a feasible option for outlets that are unused. You simply stick these plastic items to safety block access to the empty outlet. This prevents children from being able to touch the outlet or stick things in the holes. The plus to this safety outlet cover product is that it is easy to install, and can be used with both standard and designer style outlets. The drawback, though, is that many children figure out how to remove the plugs, so if you use this product instead of a regular electrical outlet cover, you need to be aware that this danger exists.

Standard sized plugs can choke a child. Try SafetyCaps instead.

safetycaps are wider and ventilated to prevent choking.
