Do You Do-It-Yourself? Few things are so satisfying as working in the yard, then kicking back to admire your handy work. (We know - we do it for a living!) A good looking yard is a source of pride, provides a sense of completion, maintains the property value, and gives your family a safe place to be. Nothing wrong with that! But there's a huge health risk associated with the irresponsible use of lawn chemicals. How many times have you ended up with itchy ankles after applying fertilizer to your yard? Or after golfing for an afternoon? Just like topical medicines, pesticides are absorbed through the skin! Do You Follow the Label? Do-it-yourselfers are at the highest risk for exposure to and damage from chemical lawn care products. Often products are labeled as safe, but only under certain conditions. Do-it-yourselfers tend to ignore label mixing rates and over apply, not fully understanding the power of the poison they are using. Worse, they fail to follow the noted clothing requirements or wait time before using the yard. How many times have you seen someone spraying pesticides or applying lawn products in shorts, barefoot, shirtless, and not wearing gloves? (Or how many times have you done so yourself?) Here are some documents you should read if you are currently using chemical products to maintain your lawn on your own: Friends, There is a Better Way! You have a choice in do-it-yourself lawn care. You can use our safe, non-toxic fertilizers and weed control products! We are happy to deliver them to your front door for a $5.00 per trip charge.
