The bed bug heaters can overheat, melt and cause a fire, posing a fire hazard.
PackTite is recalling bed bug heating units that can overheat, melt, and cause fires. This hazard means users should stop using the product immediately to avoid fire risks.
The heaters can overheat and melt, potentially causing a fire. This happens when the heaters are used inside the black canvas bags for bed bug treatment without proper safety measures.
Anyone who owns PackTite bed bug heating units sold with their original treatment systems. Users who place items in the black canvas bags and turn on the heaters are most at risk.
Look for PackTite heating units with no visible text on the up-facing side of the heater casing. The heaters have reset instructions on the underside and are sold with PackTite's original bed bug treatment systems.
Immediately stop using the recalled bed bug heating units to prevent fire hazards.
