• Why: The cans can rupture and expel shrapnel, posing an injury risk.
• Where: The Maggie’s Farm recall is active in the United States.

Maggie’s Farm recalled more than 14,000 cans of Bed Bug & Flea Killer as the cans can rupture and expel shrapnel, posing an injury risk.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) website published the recall Aug. 3. It applies to 14,500 14-ounce cans of Maggie’s Farm Bed Bug & Flea Killer with UPC 811249020540 and Lot No. 0101325. 

According to the recall, the pressurized aerosol bed bug and flea killer cans can rupture and expel shrapnel, posing injury and laceration hazards to consumers. In addition, leakage poses a risk of skin and eye irritation upon contact, the recall states. 

Maggie’s Farm received four reports of cans rupturing, with no injuries reported, it says. The company is not facing legal action over the recall, but Top Class Actions follows recalls closely as they sometimes end in class action lawsuits.

Immediately stop using product, Maggie’s Farm recall says

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled Bed Bug & Flea Killer, take a photo of the recalled can and lot code, wrap the product in a plastic bag or several layers of paper and dispose of it in the trash, the recall states.  

Use caution to avoid skin and eye contact if the can appears to be leaking, the Maggie’s Farm recall says. 

Consumers should submit a photo of the can, their contact information and written confirmation that they will dispose of the recalled can to Maggie’s Farm at info@maggiesfarmproducts.com to receive a full refund.

Maggie’s Farm sold the recalled cans at Meijer, Big Y, Stop & Shop, Woodman’s and defense commissaries nationwide and online at maggiesfarmproducts.com, walmart.com and amazon.com for between about $6 and $12, the recall states. 

In a lawsuit involving flea products, in 2022, a consumer hit Bayer with a class action lawsuit alleging it continued to market its Seresto flea and tick collars as safe for pets even after tens of thousands of pet injuries and more than a thousand deaths.
