Urgent UAE Insect Product Recall: Banned Household Sprays Removed From Market
The exact names of the two banned insect spray products.
The official safety order targets two specific pest control sprays commonly sold in local markets. Both of these banned household products are made by a regional company named SCITRA under a popular brand name.
- Product 1: Goodbye All Insects Max Kills In One Spray
- Product 2: Goodbye All Insects Spray
Why Were They Recalled?
The health dangers and illegal rules behind the official ban.
A sudden market check by the Emirates Drug Establishment revealed serious chemical and legal violations. Authorities found that these home sprays are highly unsafe for family use due to dangerous test results.
First, the manufacturing company distributed these sprays in the market without any official registration. Selling any chemical product without government permission is strictly against local laws.
Second, laboratory tests confirmed that one spray contained ‘d-trans allethrin’, which is a strictly prohibited substance. Testing also showed that the other product had wrong ingredient levels that do not match national health and safety rules.
Immediate Action Plan for Residents
What UAE consumers must do if they bought these sprays.
Government teams are already working together to remove these dangerous banned sprays in UAE from all grocery stores, supermarkets, and online shopping apps.
If you have any of these spray bottles at home, please stop using them immediately. Shop owners and online sellers are also warned to stop buying or selling these items. If you already bought these pest sprays, you should return them directly to the shop or pharmacy where you found them.
Strict Warnings Against Lawbreakers
The legal consequences for companies that ignore safety rules.
The government has made it clear that public health cannot be compromised. Strict monitoring is now happening across all retail outlets to clear out the remaining stock.
Shops caught selling these items will face heavy fines and legal action. Special health teams are actively cleaning up supermarket shelves and digital marketplaces to remove the hazardous stock. Authorities will continue unexpected inspections in all emirates to ensure no illegal pesticides are hidden in local shops.
