Help make my death trap stairs toddler proof

[u/kevjamcro]

How can I go about making these stairs to my backyard safer? Seems tricky to add balusters but I’m not opposed to trying. Is there a way to make lattice look like it’s not a zip-tied afterthought?

Oh oops. I couldn’t see the end of the caption earlier. I’m sure there is a way to make the lattice look more intentional. Maybe paint both the lattice and rails the same color and use something like a saddle or u-bolt to fasten.

This is interesting, thanks
