You must try not to touch the leaves or flowers, and if it has to do, after you finish your work, you should thoroughly wash hands with soap and water. Especially should be protected from dangerous juice eyes. People with very sensitive skin at the slightest contact with the leaves of primroses room there is severe irritation, even inflammation of the skin. Many people believe that to keep the plants in the room is harmful and dangerous to health, because their leaves are supposedly emit a lot of carbon dioxide (like many extremly hazard mitigation materials). All green plants do emit carbon dioxide during respiration, but only in the dark. But no harm to human health, it does not work - so little of it.
