Pesticides are used to control the nuisance and damage caused by pests. All pesticides are toxic and poisonous to be effective. Thus, pesticides are hazardous to you, your pets and the environment. As a pet parent, you must have an understanding of harmful exposure to toxic pesticides. You many not be aware but these exposures occur right in your own home.
Three in four US households are using some sort of chemical pesticide at home. Protect your pets from toxic pesticides.
How does your pet get expose to toxic pesticides?
Pets can be exposed to toxic pesticides when they breathe in the product or absorb it through their skin. Be a conscious pet parent, read the label of the products you use for your home and pet.
Did you know?
“The majority of our pesticide exposure – 80% – actually happens indoors, making it imperative for households to choose safe products for their homes, pets and families.”

Great these are to proceted from the inner house toxins which could result in bad for our pets.
Thanks for sharing this among us.

We do not put any toxic chemical on our plants, grass or garden vegetables because our dogs are in the backyard playing and swimming. They eat grass and vegetables off the garden.
We do everything we can to use all natural products whenever possible (and this goes great with our own post today for spring cleaning!)… these products sound great!
that’s a great idea, I think it’s a good helper when we meet a lot of other doggies at a show or a park :o)
We use natural cleaning products in our home.
I try to use natural cleaners in my house – vinegar, etc. , so that my family – including the four-legged ones – aren’t exposed to cleaning chemicals. We haven’t had to deal with fleas in a long time – we sprinkle Diatimous earth in our yard to keep the fleas away in a natural way.
There’s not much I can do to protect my dogs from chemicals…as they’re used all around us. One thing I would never do because of the risk is get a lawn treatment. The smell screams “bad for you”!
We use natural products in our house.
We have used Wondercide products! Mom loves that their products are not toxic to us!

Would probably use that for the home – couch, rugs, dog beds etc… Thanks for the heads up about Shark Tank – we’ll set the DVR
I usually look for natural pesticides, like planting certain plants to ward insects or I don’t use any kind if I can’t find anything that is nontoxic to my animals. This natural pesticide sounds wonderful.
i try not to use any chemicals in my house and on my yard. i go to a homeopathic vet. i also try to use all natural products, and dont use anything that has ingredients that i dont know what they are or dont recognize. i have used wondercide b4 and have some in my house now for fleas and ticks. my independent vet store has been carrying wondercide products for several yrs.
Great post Sugar. We have stopped using pesticides and herbicides completely. No – I take it back – we do use a squirt of RoundUp on poison ivy in the yard because I’m so horribly allergic to it. But we haven’t seen any of that in a few years! I wish more people gave careful thought before using poisons. The Wondercide products sound like a step in the right direction.
I only use natural deterrents for my pets and pests. I use cinnamon and basil and DE.
I am currently using Underside which I first was introduced to at Dogology in Canton Connecticut.

I just make sure we don’t use anything toxic.
We try to be very careful with what we use both inside and out. In the past, I always worried about the weeds, and had a lawn service. We stopped that many years ago now…I do not mind pulling the weeds…knowing my pets are safer!
Hi Sugar! I have 4 dogs. I wouldn’t mind winning this!
Since we keep are grass green year round and we have tons of plants in the backyard we use only organic and pet-safe fertilizers to makes sure that Nala and Cody are safe/
I keep my dogs inside when the neighbors are having their yard sprayed with lawn fertilizers. I also stopped using the poisons they sell to keep the fleas and ticks off our fur-babies. I am using natural essential oils to keep them flea/tick-free this year.
we just dont use pesticides. that is how we avoid them.
We are very conscientious about products we use around our dog!
