Angry Orange Recall Pulls 1.5 Million Stain Removers Nationwide

About 1.5 million units of Angry Orange Enzyme Stain Removers sold nationwide have been recalled over a potential risk of Pseudomonas bacteria contamination, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).

The Angry Orange recall covers products sold both online and in physical stores across the United States. The CPSC said the bacteria can enter the human body through inhalation or through cuts or wounds in the eyes or skin. The agency noted that the bacteria generally does not have a significant effect on people with healthy immune systems.

The recalled products include Fresh Clean Scent and Orange Twist Scent versions sold in 24-ounce, 32-ounce, and 1-gallon containers. Approximately 1.5 million units were sold nationwide.

Some products were sold as sets that included a UV light. The items were packaged in orange or white bottles labeled “Angry Orange” and “Stain & Odor Remover” on the front.

As of now, no illnesses or infections associated with the recalled products have been reported, the CPSC said.
