Q: Are your applications safe for my children and pets?

A: Yes. Children and/or pets need to remain off of your lawn until it has dried. Because all applications require irrigation to move products down into the soil, products are only at the surface a short while.

Q: Will rainfall affect today's application?

A: Rainfall will allow fertilizer and pre-emergent products to enter the soil where they will be effective. An equivalent of 1/2 to 1 inch of precipitation (rainfall or irrigation) is needed for this. When treating existing weeds I use surfactants which enable herbicides to stick to the leaf surface of weeds even during periods of light to moderate rain at the time of application.

Q: Are there watering requirements for applications?

A: Yes. For full effectiveness of treatments and to maximize your investment it is essential to follow the irrigation requirements. The equivalent of 1/2 to 1 inch of precipitation (rainfall or irrigation) is needed
