Liquid Plumr Recalled Over Faulty Child-Resistant Caps

Clorox is recalling three kinds of Liquid Plumr due to faulty child-resistant bottle caps and the threat they pose to children, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The three products are:

  • Liquid Plumr Pro-Strength Foaming Clog Fighter

The products have been sold at Dollar General, Family Dollar, HEB, Home Depot, Kroger, Lowe’s, Meijer, Publix, Rite-Aid, Target, Walgreens, Walmart and other dollar, grocery, hardware and mass merchandise stores nationwide and online from January 2012 to May 2016.
