What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (poisoning via methyl salicylate) where no injuries have yet been reported, which aligns with the 'High' severity criteria in the rubric.

Plain-English summary

MTIG Productions LLC, dba deSensua, is recalling approximately 1,000 units of deSensua Wintergreen, Birch, and Pain Soother Essential Oils.
