At Oasis Turf & Tree, we know your pets are part of the family—and their safety matters. 🐾

In this video, Danielle Whalen, Customer Experience Manager, explains how our lawn care program is designed with pet safety in mind, along with simple steps you can take to keep your yard as safe as possible for your furry friends.

You don’t have to choose between a healthy lawn and a safe environment for your pets—you can have both.

🌱 What You’ll Learn:
✅ Are lawn care products safe for pets?
✅ What products we use and how they’re tested
✅ When it’s safe to let pets back on the lawn
✅ Why we use spot treatments instead of blanket spraying
✅ What you can do as a pet owner to help

🐾 Key Takeaways:

💡 All products we use are thoroughly tested by the EPA
💡 Granular applications (fertilizer, grub control, pre-emergent) are safe immediately after application
Liquid weed control is safe once dry (we recommend waiting about an hour)
💡 We use targeted spot treatments, not blanket spraying
💡 A thick, healthy lawn reduces the need for excess chemicals

🏡 Tips for Pet Owners:

🧸 Keep toys and pet items off the lawn before service
⏱️ Wait for weed control to fully dry before letting pets out
🌿 Maintain a healthy lawn to reduce treatment needs over time

We love helping families enjoy their yards safely—with pets included 🐕🌿
