Summer brings warm days for kids and pets to play outside more, and also gives adults more time to socialize in the evenings. With all this time enjoying the outdoors, there are numerous potential dangers for our pets to run across on the lawn that many homeowners don’t know can be harmful. The ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center recently released the top 5 warm-weather dangers for our dearly loved four-legged friends. Therefore, have you thought about how safe your lawn is for your pets? Is your lawn pet-friendly?
According to the ASPCA, a warm-weather danger is the yard products from weed killers, pest controls, and lawn fertilizers that people place in their lawns. These items can be very dangerous to pets due to the toxic chemicals they contain. Therefore, changing your grass lawn to artificial turf means you no longer have to spread out hazardous lawn chemicals. This means you’ll help keep your pets safe during the summer months.
If you have any concerns or questions regarding toxic chemicals or plants, please call the ASPCA 24/7 Animal Poison Control Center or your local veterinarian clinic. ASPCA also has an informative listing of toxic plants and flowers to dogs and cats, as well as a safe, non-toxic listing for pets. NexGen Lawns aims to always keep safety a priority for your pets. That’s why synthetic dog turf is the best answer to provide a pet-friendly yard. Artificial grass gives pets a clean and safe area to play without ever worrying about dangerous fertilizers or weed killers. Our turf requires less maintenance and can be easily washed clean.
