Bio Source Naturals is recalling about 390 bottles of Wintergreen and Birch Sweet essential oils because they contain methyl salicylate but lack child-resistant packaging. This failure to meet safety requirements means young children could easily open the bottles and swallow the contents, which is toxic. The products were sold in various sizes ranging from 0.5 to 4 fluid ounces between July 2013 and June 2020 on BioSourceNaturals.com, Etsy.com, and Amazon.com. Consumers should immediately move these bottles to a secure location and contact the company for a full refund.
The essential oils contain methyl salicylate, which can be poisonous if ingested by young children. Because the bottles use standard caps instead of child-resistant packaging, children can easily access and swallow the toxic liquid.
Consumers should immediately store the products in a safe location out of reach of children and contact Bio Source Naturals for a full refund. Bio Source Naturals is directly notifying all known purchasers about the recall.
