Add warning labels to harmful essential oil ingredients
Certain ingredients in essential oils and scented candles can be toxic or fatal to small animals and cats. Without information made known to the seller, it could result in high vet bills or loss of life
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise.
The EU, not Government or Parliament, decides what warning labels have to go on packaging. Most of the labels on packaging, such as traffic light nutrition labels and litter campaign labels, are there due to voluntary schemes.
You could start a new petition asking the UK Government to encourage the industry to add labels to essential oils and scented candles to raise awareness of the danger to pets.
