Louisiana Residents Should Check for This Recalled Product

SHREVEPORT, LA – You might want to check your laundry room for a product that is being recalled. More than 8 million packages of laundry detergent are being recalled and that could impact thousands of Louisiana residents.

What Products Are Recalled?

The recall involves Tide, Gain Flings, Ace, and Ariel liquid laundry detergent pod packets. These pods were manufactured between September 2023 and February 2024 and sold in flexible bags. This recall focuses on the outer packaging, which was designed to prevent access to the pods. The packaging of the recalled pods could split open near the zipper track, posing a risk of serious injury to children and other vulnerable populations if the contents of the laundry detergent pods are ingested, as well as posing a risk of skin or eye injuries.

The products that are part of the recall were sold at several retailers including Big Lots, CVS, Family Dollar, Home Depot, Sam’s Club, Target, Walmart, and online from Amazon.

The pods were priced between $5 for one 12-count bag and $30 for four 39-count bags that were packaged in a box.

If you do have any of the recalled products you are advised to immediately put recalled bags out of sight and reach of children. You can then contact Procter & Gamble for a refund and a free replacement child-resistant bag to store the product.
