Published May 13, 2021 · Recall initiated: May 13, 2021
What's the hazard

The packaging of the products is not child resistant, posing a risk of chemical burns and irritation to the skin and eyes. In addition, the label on the products violates the Federal Hazardous Substance Act (FHSA) by omitting the word "poison" and other mandatory information on the packaging.
What to do
