Woolite Delicates detergent sold on Amazon recalled due to bacterial contamination

Reckitt has recalled approximately 16,200 bottles of Woolite Delicates detergent due to potential bacterial contamination, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission announced Wednesday.
The Fast Track Recall involves 50-fluid-ounce bottles of Woolite Delicates detergent (SKU 62338-72724) with lot codes S24364, S24365 and S24366. The lot code is printed at the top of the back of the bottle. The bottles are white with a light pink label and cap.
The recalled products can contain Pseudomonas species bacteria, including Pseudomonas oleovorans.
Although the environmental organism is found widely in soil and water, people with weakened immune systems or external medical devices who are exposed to the bacteria face a risk of serious infection that may require medical treatment. The bacteria can enter the body through the eyes or a break in the skin. People with healthy immune systems are usually not affected by the bacteria.
The recalled detergent was sold exclusively on Amazon.com in January 2025 for between $14 and $17.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled detergent and contact Reckitt for a full refund. To receive a refund, consumers should write their name and “Recalled” in permanent marker on the back of the product, then take a photo with the UPC and lot code visible and email the photo to ConsumerCare_USA@reckitt.com.
Once consumers receive their refund, they should dispose of the product by closing the bottle tightly and placing it in household trash. Do not empty the product prior to disposal. Do not attempt to recycle the product bottle.
No incidents or injuries have been reported.
Consumers can contact Reckitt at 800-228-4722 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern time Monday through Friday, by email at ConsumerCare_USA@reckitt.com, or online at https://www.woolite.us/Voluntary-Recall/ or at https://www.woolite.us/ and click on “Voluntary Recall” at the top of the page for more information.
