Tuesday, the Consumer Product Safety Commission said that Clorox is recalling eight Pine-Sol cleaning products due to potential contamination with an infection-causing bacteria.
The CPSC stated that customers who have already purchased the goods can request a refund.
Clorox is recalling its Pine-Sol Scented Multi-Surface Cleaners with the scents Lavender Clean, Sparkling Wave, and Lemon Fresh.
Four Clorox Pro Pine-Sol All-Purpose Cleaners are also being recalled: Lavender Clean, Sparkling Wave, Lemon Fresh, and Orange Energy. In addition, Clorox Professional Pine-Sol Lemon Fresh Cleaners are being recalled.
The original pine-scented Pine-Sol cleansers are excluded from the recall, according to the CPSC.
According to the commission, the recalled products may contain the bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), it can cause infections in the blood, lungs, and other regions of the body after surgery.
According to the CPSC, Pseudomonas aeruginosa can enter the human body via inhalation, the eyes, and skin breaches.
Individuals with healthy immune systems should not be affected, but those with compromised immune systems or external medical equipment are at risk for serious infection, according to the commission.
The bacterium was discovered in products made between January 2021 and September 2022, according to the CPSC.
The CPSC announced the recall of bottles with date codes beginning with “A4” followed by a five-digit number less than 2249.
The CPSC advised consumers to photograph the 12-digit UPC code and date code on the bottle, dispose of the merchandise, and contact Pine-Sol for a full refund.
Clorox sent a statement to Insider stating: “As the health and safety of our goods is of the utmost importance, Pine-Sol announced a voluntary recall of select scented Pine-Sol products due to the possibility that they contain bacteria. Original Pine-Sol (pine smell) is not affected by this recall and can be used safely.”
The 28th of October in 2022 — A previous version of this article incorrectly referred to cleaner products as disinfection products. A recall was issued for eight Clorox cleaners designed to remove loose dirt, dust, and debris from surfaces. The recall did not include products that fight germs and bacteria, such as disinfectants.
