Ethylene glycol (EG) toxicity is a usual occurrence in dogs and cats. Which common household item is a major contributor to ethylene glycol (EG) toxicity?

Degreaser
Radiator antifreeze
Air freshener
Toilet bowl cleaner

Explanation

Answer: B - Radiator antifreeze is a common household item that causes ethylene glycol toxicity. The widespread availability of antifreeze, its sweet taste and small minimum lethal dose, and the lack of public awareness of the toxicity (i.e., improper storage and disposal) contribute to the frequency of this intoxication.
