Caller is reporting that she experienced similar problems of recall# Hazard: The aerosol container’s liner can corrode over time, posing a risk of the cans rupturing and expelling its contents. She stated that the container was in her bathroom closet, she heard an explosion and later discovered that the can had exploded causing other objects to become a projectile. The manufacturer was not contacted as yet. Caller stated that she was not aware of this recall. Caller feels that this incident should be reported.

I bought a can of bug bomb at Hernando FL dollar general store the tab is pose to lock and it doesn't lock down like it should that is a major chemical hazard that could kill someone if inhaled harmful chemicals.

Redken Guts 10 exploded under bathroom sink.

A can of Redkin Guts Mousse exploded in the bathroom cabinet. I wasn't aware of the recall until I started to investigate by google. Although no one was hurt, it created a huge mess.

This is a warning for anyone who may have the hair product Redken 10 Gut Mousse in their home. On September 17, 2019 my husband and I were both awakened from a sound sleep by a loud explosion at 2:00 a.m. in the morning. We searched our house from the upstairs to the basement and found nothing. We checked outside and found nothing. Very strange and scary experience. The next day I noticed the bottom drawer on one of our vanities was open. When I attempted to close the drawer I found it was off the track. When I looked closer I noticed all of the hair products I store in that drawer were all jumbled and covered in dried product of some sort. In the midst of all them all was a can of Redken 10 Gut Mousse. The side of the can was completely blown open. The other cans in the drawer had dents in them. In addition, the sides of the drawer were detached from the drawer guide and the back board on the drawer was blown off completely!!! I can only imagine what would have happened it someone had picked up the can and tried to use it when it decided to explode!!! In our case no one was injured but my concern lies with how many consumers still may have this product and are not aware of the danger. I understand the product was recalled, but the average consumer never gets those recall notices as was my case. The Redken Company has confirmed the can I had was one on the recall list. I further understand that most people don't keep products as long as I had this one. I probably bought it to try, and never used it again so it was in the back of my hair supply products. I have no idea what can be done to protect others from this defective product but I do not want to see anyone hurt which is why I am submitting this information

My wife bought a new bug spray advertised as safe for children and pets and safe for use throughout your home. She sprayed an area of the kitchen floor with it before she went to bed. I went to the kitchen during the night and slipped. It was like the floor was covered in baby oil and still wet. Jarred my back when I caught myself with my back foot and grabbed the counter, but was able to avoid a fall. It's a miracle I didn't hit the floor. Others will be severely injured from this product. The product is lemon oil and white mineral oil based. There is a tiny, barely legible warning on the back of the spray can about surfaces being made slippery with the heading "A Note on Surfaces:" It also has a warning about avoiding contact with eyes and skin, but there's no way a baby can crawl on a floor that was sprayed with this product and not get the oil all over its skin. It does not dry like other sprays because of being oil based. But the fall risk is my main concern. The risk is severe.

Caller stated that the metal bottle that holds the foam gel exploded while she was away from home. She stated that came back to find cans and other bottles thrown across the room, she thought that it might have been a break-in. Caller stated that the force of the explosion cause a hole in the tray where it was located and to her drapes. The liquid splattered all over the wall in the room. She stated that she found the bottle on the kitchen floor. She believes the bottle became a projectile or had a ricochet effect when the incident occurred. Caller stated that she was not sure when she had made the purchase and that it could have been years. The manufacturer was not contacted as yet. Caller feels that this bottle is a safety hazard and should be reported.

Spray painted for 3 hours. First, primer. Then, color paint. Right index fingertip was numb and tingling immediately after. A day later, fingertip is still numb and tingling. Great circulation but no feeling. We all need our fingers to type and write, however I need it to pass medications to patients and give push meds through IV lines and I use my fingertips for pushing meds. After reading several stories of the possibility of NEVER regaining feeling back into my fingertip, I needed to share my story and concern, Safety concern: I would like to see a caution label or special attachment encouraged to prevent this injury from occurring to someone else.
