Do you get your house sprayed with some insecticides or your lawns with pesticides? I have to get it done regularly but I feel too worried for my pet. Will it cause some damage to my dog, well people who come to spray that these are safe for dogs but still I am afraid. If anyone has some idea please do share.

The minute I got my Boots, I stopped using all chemicals that can be poisonous. I use only organic pest killers and the electronic ones that don't bother cats.

It;s far too dangerous to have that poison around your animal since they always get into and taste everything. Look around for plants that pests hate and use that instead.

Rule of thumb.

If it can kill and ant in mila-seconds, what can it do to your or your pets/love ones in a matter of hours.

Our bodies are made up of very unique chemicals, when one goes out of balance, it can cause your entire system to eventually stop working correctly.

Organophosphates which are a majority of pesticides used in American homes were developed in Europe during WWII for chemical warfare. They were developed to interfer with the central nervous system, and just a drop can do a world of harm to a small animal.

A good shoe takes care of most problems.

I like that- a good shoe. I also stopped using anything when we got pets. I won't even use any kind of mouse poison and we live in the country so they are around once in a while.
