I agree, IMHO spraying is just plain dangerous for dogs, cats or humans. Although I see people who work for the Pest Control Companies spraying without masks!

The golf courses don't notify people who have lots backing on the courses when they will be spraying. So the scary part is you don't know when to be careful. I've sometimes seen them at dawn and after dark, and I know to avoid the back yard and close all the windows. But I'm sure they spray lots of times that I'm not aware. Hmmmm, guess I could ask for a spray schedule. Don't know how successful that would be. :dontknow:
