Usually they leave their toxic affects on you upon ingestion but the toxin can also seep through your skin while handling seeds to grow new plants from seeds. So one should always wear gardening gloves while gardening. Yup it is one of the plants with adverse effects on both humans and pets.

Perhaps it is this toxicity that has enabled it to survive. Just hope we don't wipe it out with careless or unmanaged invasion of the natural habitats within which these plants are found.

Its been known pets have eaten toys, jewelry, and toxic items including plants or rat poisons, but there are safe pest control products out there. Us as pet owners we have to make sure our homes and yards are safe for our pets look around the house and yard and be aware of what your pet might get into. Also learn the plants that are in your yard, if you have berries growing on a bush that are poisonous, remove them if you have not only pets but children may think they are just some fruit.

Thank you for sharing. I used to have a sago palm in my apartment where I didn't have my cats. The palm ended up dying as my roommate relocated it to a high shelf in the pantry where he forgot about it and I didn't see it. They are very pretty plants and it's a shame they're poisonous. I now have cats and won't be decorating my house with this plant. Thank you also, for sharing the list of other poisonous plants. I will take a look and keep them in mind when I go plant shopping to decorate my new home. I wasn’t aware of this. Thank you for sharing.

Every homeowner these days seems to be crazy about these palms, and they get excited when they hear there's a sale on them. I wonder if this poison issue will change their minds.
