Spirit Halloween expands a recall of feather boas because of burn risk for consumers.
Health Canada announced an expanded recall of Spirit Halloween’s feather boas to include the hot pink colour because of burn risk.
Health Canada’s sampling and evaluation program determined the product did not meet the requirements for textile flammability.
If exposed to flames such as candles, matches or lighters, Health Canada says a boa or the angel wings that were previously recalled could catch fire and cause burns to consumers.
Previous recalls took place in 2012, 2014 and 2015.
