Bulk Apothecary is recalling approximately 20,240 units of Nature's Oil Wintergreen and Birch Essential Oils because they contain methyl salicylate but lack child-resistant packaging. This defect violates the Poison Prevention Packaging Act and poses a serious poisoning risk if the contents are swallowed by young children. The recalled oils were sold in various sizes ranging from 10 mL to 5-pound containers between January 2016 and May 2020 on BulkApothecary.com and Amazon.com.
The packaging is not child-resistant, allowing children to easily open and swallow the oils. These products contain methyl salicylate, which is highly toxic to children and can lead to severe poisoning if ingested.
Consumers should immediately store the products in a safe location out of reach of children and contact Bulk Apothecary for a full refund. All known purchasers are being notified directly by Bulk Apothecary about the recall and will receive a full refund.
