Capstone Holdings is recalling approximately 2,935 bottles of Simply Earth Wintergreen Essential Oil (15 mL). The product contains methyl salicylate, which is required by federal law to be in child-resistant packaging. Because the bottles were sold with standard caps that are not child-resistant, they pose a serious poisoning risk if children access and swallow the contents. These oils were sold online at SimplyEarth.com and at the Simply Earth store in Wisconsin between September 2016 and September 2019.
The packaging is not child-resistant as required by the Poison Prevention Packaging Act, creating a risk that young children could open the bottle and ingest the methyl salicylate, leading to severe poisoning. No injuries or incidents have been reported to date.
Consumers should immediately store the product in a safe location out of reach of children and contact Simply Earth for a free child-resistant replacement cap. The firm is directly notifying all known purchasers about the recall.
