Thanks to Swiffer for answering my email quickly. I emailed Swifferand asked about the rumor that Swiffer products are dangerous for pets. I wanted to give them the chance of answering my question directly.

So, here is the answer from Swiffer!

“Thanks for coming to us for the facts about the ingredients in our Swiffer cleaning products. Swiffer Wet cloths and WetJet liquid solution do not contain antifreeze or any ingredient similar to it. In fact, Swiffer products have been safely used in over 15 million U.S. homes–many with pets–for nearly five years.

Independent veterinarians and scientists evaluated the Swiffer Wet Cloths and WetJet cleaners and found them safe. The ASPCA (American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) has even posted information about this rumor on their site. Here’s a link to their home page: http://www.aspca.org

We have pets too, and their health and well-being is very important to us. Please help us put animal lovers’ minds at ease and stop this rumor by sharing the truth with others.”

Thanks again for writing.
