What the Food Standards Agency have said.
"Salmonella is a bacterium that can cause illness in humans and animals.
"The product could therefore carry a potential risk because of the presence of salmonella, either through direct handling of the pet food, or indirectly, for example from pet feeding bowls, utensils or contact with the faeces of animals."
What you should do
If you have bought any of the above products do not use them.
Instead, return them to the store from where they were bought for a full refund.

Stores that sell the affected products have been ordered to put up notices explaining why they are being recalled, and what customers should do if they have purchased it.
Point of sale notices will be displayed in all retail stores that are selling these products. These notices explain to customers why the products are being recalled and tell them what to do if they have bought the product.
