If used appropriately it is not toxic. The intent behind this kit is not to make it safe for kiddies so much but rather "natural" not pharma/chemical laden. Even natural things can be dangerous if given to kids unsupervised. Ben, I don’t think so. If used appropriately it is not toxic.

Also, if you are without anything to stop bleeding, cleanish (well as new and clean as possible) spiderwebs will stop bleeding incredibly quickly. I have used both of these methods when I lived in the bush for quite some time.

Just dump a little pile of it on the wound, and wrap it up.
