Spring time usually means we begin a cycle of lawn care. I am reading
"Organic Lawn Care Manual". I don't know if the lawn care suggestions
are good (give me time to try them) but I want to remind pet owners that
pets are more susceptible to the effects of chemicals in the lawn. In
the April 2004 Journal of Veterinary Medicine Association a study showed a
5 to 7 times increase in bladder cancer for dogs exposed to chemically
treated lawns. Read and follow the directions carefully on both
organic and nonorganic lawn care products. Carefully consider the impact
of lawn chemicals on your pets before you use them. |
