Clorox recalled 8 Pine-Sol disinfectants that may contain an infection-causing bacterium. They’re these

The Consumer Product Safety Commission said on Tuesday that Clorox is recalling eight Pine-Sol disinfectant cleaning products due to the possibility that they contain 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 did not immediately respond to an inquiry from Insider.
