Just outside the back door was a pepper plan with peppers that looked a lot like those. My baby brother, about 2 years old, got into these pretty peppers, smash them in his little hands, and rubbed them on this face, in his eyes and his mouth. I remember the hours of screaming in pain the whole family endured as my parents did all they could to stop the burning. It still in vivid as I relive that situation now.

So if anyone has pepper plants that toddlers could get into, please take necessary precautions to avoid such a painful event.
