- Recall started
- 13 May 2021
- Reason
- The products contain sodium and potassium hydroxide, which must be in child resistant packaging as required by the Poison Prevention Packaging Act (PPPA). 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.
- Remedy
- Consumers should immediately store the recalled products in a safe location out of sight and reach of children. Contact The Lye Guy for free replacement child resistant packaging and a new label. All known purchasers are being contacted directly by the firm.
