Is Tiger Thorn Poisonous?

1. Is it toxic?

Euphorbia milii is a perennial plant of the Euphorbiaceae family, and most plants in the Euphorbiaceae family are poisonous, so it itself is also poisonous.

During maintenance, you may also find that when wounds appear on the branches, a white juice will flow out of the wounds. This juice contains toxins, that is, toxic substances, so you must pay attention during maintenance.

2. Matters needing attention in maintenance

In daily maintenance, such as pruning and repotting Euphorbia, it is best to wear gloves. At the same time, we must be careful not to let this white juice get on our skin and wounds, so as to avoid poisoning and not be too nervous. Although it is poisonous, it can be prevented with a little caution.

3. Matters Needing Attention in Placement

Since it is poisonous, you should be careful when placing it. When raising the plant at home, if there are children and pets around, be careful to place it out of their reach. In addition, you should also note that there are some relatively large thorns on its branches, and there is some dust or dirty substances on the surface of the thorns. If they pierce the skin, they will cause unnecessary effects, so you must also pay attention to protection.
