How to Best Protect Pets from Weed Killers

Tina Wismer, DVM, and the senior director of the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center, says that many pets get exposed to weed killers when they are outside with their owner while gardening and lick a wet weed that has just been chemically treated.

In order to avoid this, make sure you keep pets inside while spraying any chemicals, and keep them away from the treated area until the weed killer is fully dried.

"Always make sure to follow label directions when applying weed killers," Wismer says.

"Keep pets off the treated area until it is dry—could be minutes or hours depending on the humidity."

Other pets are exposed not during the application of the weed killer, but when it is stored incorrectly.

Dogs can mistake gardening products for toys, says Whitmer, and when "playing," they can ingest unsafe weed killers.
