    Scott turf builder/ weed killer bad for dogs???

    HI group, I am trying to find out how long after putting this stuff on my grass, can I let my dogs back on the grass? I have heard that it has to be dried all the way. But others have said that if they eat the grass, it can still hurt them. So just how long is long enough?

    I don't really trust chemicals like those, too many things can go wrong.

    I'm not sure about that particular brand but most lawn sprays are not safe for *at least* 24 hours. Some need longer, until a good rain rinses a lot of it into the soil then after it is dried.

    It is best to contact the company directly.
    Soar high & free my sweet fur angels. I love you Nanook & Raustyk... forever & ever.

    Yes I think contacting the company would be a very good idea. I remember reading somewhere that weed killer can be a carcinogen if pets are exposed too soon, so be careful.
