I am in the middle of risk assessing my garden, i have a few trees that over hang my garden ( neighbour cut down major overhanging branches) have found out they are sycamour and hawthorn, which is OK. But I have Ivy Rhubbarb, bluebells and daffodils in the garden, which can be poisonous or cause skin reactions, I dont want to have to pull these up.
I know the daffodils it is the bulbs that are the issues, and ivy it is because it can be a skin irritant, and the rhubbarb it is the leaves, but we grow this and use it for making crumbles etc.
I am just nto sure hw to risk assess them or how to contain them in my garden, do i need to fence any of them off, or would supervision of the children when outdoors be OK. I want my house to be as much as a home as possible even when minidng.
Any help would be appreciated ??
