🚨 Carbon Monoxide—The Invisible Killer! 🤯🔥 A confined space explosion rocked the worksite, but the cause wasn’t immediately clear. Was it gas buildup? A hidden ignition source? Or the silent threat of carbon monoxide (CO)? ⚠️ The Danger? CO is odorless, colorless, and deadly—you won’t know it’s there until it’s too late.
