Tide to add lid latch to keep children out of detergent packets.

The AP (5/25, Ball, Merchant) reported, "The maker of Tide Pods will create a new double-latch lid to deter children from accessing and eating the brightly colored detergent packets, a company spokesman said Friday. Procter & Gamble spokesman Paul Fox said the Cincinnati-based company plans to create a new lid on tubs of Tide Pods 'in the next couple of weeks.'" The reason is the number of poisoning incidents, attributed to the attractive colors of the small packets.
