Keeping Your Pet Safe When Applying Pest Control

 

To keep homes and gardens pest-free, many pet owners apply pest control techniques that could have a bad impact on their pets. Pest control products may be sprayed, laid as traps, or sprinkled as bait in areas that could be easily accessed by pets. Before applying pesticides, herbicides, insecticides, etc. it is important that you make sure the products won’t cause any adverse effects on your pet. Even when you hire professional pest control companies, it is always good to ask about the safety of using any product around the pets. Most liquid products tend to be safe after they have dried, but it’s always better to be safe than sorry. Before pesticides are applied on your lawn or garden, make sure that your pet is confined indoors so it won’t have any access to the area until the pesticide has dried completely. 

Call your animal hospital Roanoke, VA immediately if your pet has been exposed to pesticides even if he is not showing any signs of toxicity.
