The main sources of lead poisoning remain the same: lead paint in homes prior to 1978a , and lead pipes in older homes. Lead paint can be painted over (watch the sanding) and water can be tested for lead concentrations, in which case Plumbing can be replaced or a whole-house water filter installed (reverse osmosis would be best).
