The American Cleaning Institute (ACI), in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), is advising consumers that single-load liquid laundry packets can be harmful if swallowed or exposed to eyes and is cautioning consumers to keep the packets out of the reach of children.

 

• Do not let children handle laundry packets
• Do not puncture or pull packets apart
• Store out of child's sight and reach
• Keep container closed and dry
• Packets quickly dissolve upon contact with water, wet hands, or saliva
• Packets can rupture, releasing contents into eyes
