How do you treat bonsai poisoning?

Bonsai poisoning refers to the toxicity associated with certain species of plants commonly used in bonsai cultivation. If an individual has come into contact with toxic plants used in bonsai, prompt treatment is necessary. The first step is to remove any plant material from the skin by washing the affected area thoroughly with soap and water. In case of ingestion, the person should rinse their mouth, without swallowing the water, and drink plenty of water or milk to dilute the toxins. It is essential to seek medical attention immediately, providing information on the type of plant involved, as some species can be highly toxic and may require specific treatments or antidotes. It is always recommended to consult a healthcare professional or poison control center for guidance in cases of bonsai poisoning.
