Starting on Tuesday, visitors to Disney World won’t be able to bring selfie sticks past the bag check. The sticks will also be banned at Disney World water parks, DisneyQuest and the Disneyland Resort in California. The company cited safety concerns as its reason for banning the sticks, reports The Los Angeles Times.

Disney will also expand its selfie stick ban to its parks in other countries. The company’s theme parks in Hong Kong and Paris will see the ban go into effect on July 1. The company has already had bans of the stick in place for certain rides and is now just extending it to the entire park, L.A. Times notes.

If guests at a Disney World, or its other parks, attempt to bring a selfie stick in, they will be confiscated at the entrance. The selfie sticks will be tagged and stored so that owners can pick them up on their way out, reports Fox 8.
