My goal in the next few months is to find a way to go totally pesticide free (if possible) in the small backyard grassy area that my dogs walk on.
Canned pumpkin is indeed a good stool firmer-upper as well as a stool softener. Amazingly, it works both ways. You can also spoon the canned pumpkin into ice cube trays and then freeze. That way you can pop out a "pumpkin-pop" when you need it and it doesn't go to waste.  |
If you read any instructions on these chemicals that they use on lawns to kill the bugs, they tell you not to get it on your skin. I don't know but I would think that if the grass is wet, either by the morning dew or sprinklers, there might be the possibility that the dogs can absorb it thru their paws. Every day all over the villages I see the trucks spraying chemicals to keep everything green and bug free.
