Pacific Sands Announces Critter Cleaner(TM) De-Greasing Product

RACINE, WI--(Marketwire - July 8, 2010) -  Pacific Sands, Inc. (OTCBB: PFSD), a manufacturer of a broad range of environmentally friendly cleaning products, announced the development of the Critter Cleaner™ product for cleaning domestic and wildlife animals that have been contaminated with gooey oil such as generated by the recent Gulf Oil Spill or future transportation related oil spills that could occur on the nearby Great Lakes.

To garner political awareness of Critter Cleaner™ for state and federal emergency spill applications, Pacific Sands recruited Racine, WI Mayor John Dickert to participate in a unique Critter Cleaner™ product demonstration (see at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_VBJVQPh8VM) that shows the product's effectiveness at removing oil using all natural ingredients rather than petrochemicals used in competing products.

Combining the Pacific Sands' proprietary water-based degreaser technology used in the company's Natural Choices "Refillables" line, with the oil spill cleanup experience of U.S. Microbics, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: BUGS) management, Critter Cleaner™ was created to clean off oily residue without using harsh solvents, dyes, and chemicals that may irritate the skin, require special equipment and training to apply or may harm the environment. Critter Cleaner™ will soon be available to consumers on the www.EcoGeeks.com website and to industrial and commercial clean up users on a BUGS website to be announced.

Pacific Sands president Michael Wynhoff commented, "Critter Cleaner™ was specifically developed by PFSD research chemist Dr. Jack Hagarty for use on pets and for contaminated wildlife. We are excited to provide pet owners and victims of the Gulf Oil Spill with environmentally friendly products like Critter Cleaner™ and our Natural Choices™ product line."
