Nûby IcyBite Keys Teethers

Nûby IcyBite Keys Teethers are brightly coloured, key-shaped toys filled with liquid, designed to soothe sore gums during teething. They are typically found in baby aisles at supermarkets, pharmacies, and baby specialty stores.

What’s the risk?

The liquid filling inside teethers from a specific lot (item number 530455, UPC 067988 53045 5, lot number ED04Zis) is contaminated with the bacteria Fictibactillius arsenicus and Metabacillus idriensis. If the teether is punctured and a child ingests the liquid, there is a risk of infection. Infants and young children are most at risk due to their developing immune systems.
