The recall affects approximately 940 units of the product.

On the front of the bottle, the Organic Zing logo, “Birch Oil,” and “Pure & Naturual” are printed.

The Injuries that Could Occur Due to the Defective Packaging
The reason for the recall is that the essential oil is not in child-resistant packaging, making the essential oil, which contains methyl salicylate, accessible to children. If a child ingests methyl salicylate, poisoning can occur. Even just a small sip of a substance containing methyl salicylate can be life-threatening. Some of the main symptoms of poisoning may include nausea, vomiting, dizziness, tinnitus, and tachypnea (or fast, shallow breathing). In severe instances, these symptoms are more pronounced and may include sweating, weakness, fever, and dehydration.
