Extreme Warning!!please Read!! - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

My husband is the one to alert me.It was once of his clients, and I will see if he can get that info from the client. I have not read the warnings on the swifer label, but I will this weekend. If there were no issues, I would think there would be no warning on the label..Let me see what I can find out. I would bet that some people who have had their pet die would not have connected the use of the swifer to the death of their pet, much less run an autopsy to see. Seems like it takes many people to make an issue of something before it becomes looked into.

I know that it may seem like it could be true, but really, really, really...rest assured that there is no truth to this rumor.

The mop has a very small warning about using with children or animals around..for the sake of your pets-- get rid of the Swiffer mops!

Please go to www.hoax.com and read what it says about this rumor.I thought it was true too but a friend told me to check it out and I did.
