Ingredients from the label


Directions from Packaging

Spray - it starts working instantly! Attacks stains within carpet fibers! Eliminates stain without hard scrubbing! Directions: Spray area with Woolite Oxy Deep Cleaner. Allow to penetrate for 3-5 minutes. Blot or rub gently with a clean, damp, colorfast sponge or cloth. Repeat as necessary. Avoid area until dry. Vacuum for maximum benefit. Before cleaning: Test for colorfastness on a hidden area. If carpet color is affected, do not use this product. Remove loose dirt and blot wet stains with a clean absorbent cloth. For best results: Treat stains immediately. Stains allowed to dry and set can cause bleaching and may be difficult to remove. Note: Certain stains may cause permanent discoloration even after cleaning. Do not not mix with bleach or other household products. If a portion of product is difficult to dispense, turn nozzle 180deg in opposite direction.

Understanding scores

EWG provides information on cleaning product ingredients from the published scientific literature, to supplement incomplete data available from companies and the government. The ratings indicate the relative level of concern posed by exposure to the ingredients in this product - not the product itself - compared to other product formulations. The ratings reflect potential health hazards but do not account for the level of exposure or individual susceptibility, factors which determine actual health risks, if any.

HOW WE DETERMINE SCORES

Hazard score

The Healthy Cleaning ingredient hazard score, from A to F, reflects known and suspected hazards linked to the ingredients. The EWG VERIFIED® mark means a product meets EWG’s strictest criteria for transparency and health.
