Product Name (original English): BED BUG KILLER

Risk Description (original English): The product contains boric acid (measured value: 5.2%) which is banned in products available to consumers since it is toxic for reproduction. Moreover, the product does not display the required warnings and hazard labels. The user therefore lacks the necessary information about the dangers.
