The Lemin family ordered drinks at a restaurant in Perth and then rushed their children to hospital.

A family has been left furious after claiming their children were accidentally given insect repellent instead of juice at a restaurant in Western Australia.

Marcus and Michele Lemin claim their daughters Hannah and Olivia were given the toxic liquid at a location in Perth on Friday evening.

The sisters, aged 11 and 12, had initially ordered cranberry juice with their dinner.

But they were reportedly given citronella mullein and lamp oil, a red chemical solution used to repel adult mosquitoes.

“My daughters just swallowed it and they both spit out the cranberry juice and said, ‘It’s poisoned,’” Ms. Lemin said. ABC.

The mother then took a sip and spat it out too.

After smelling the liquid, the girls’ father demanded to see the bottle it came from.

Mr Lemin claimed the staff member initially refused, but later handed him a bottle of insecticide taken from the refrigerator.

Mr Lemin took a photo of the bottle with the label ‘Plus Bifenthrin’ printed on it, along with a clear warning.

The outraged father said the waiter apologized and seemed distraught over the incident.

After receiving advice from the poison control centre, Hannah and Olivia were taken to Perth Children’s Hospital where they were monitored for six hours.

“I was really scared of what it was, and I was scared I was going to die,” Olivia said 9News.

“It felt like someone had poured fire into your stomach and it felt like you had pins and needles in your arms and legs.”

The girls’ mother was also monitored at the Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital.

All three have now been discharged and are resting at home.

Mr Lemin said he had contacted local authorities and filed a complaint with the Ministry of Health.

It is understood the department will support the local council, which is responsible for investigating the family’s claims.

Mr Lemin said he hopes the incident is thoroughly investigated so that no other family has to go through the same thing.

“I think it’s pretty simple, right?” Mr. Lemin said.

“You can’t run a restaurant and allow chemicals to be in an area where these types of mistakes can occur.”

‘At a minimum, measures must be taken to ensure that they basically adhere to the safe handling of chemicals and hazardous substances prescribed by the state.’

Micky’s Italian Fusion said it is investigating the incident.
