Pet Owners: Clean up after Fido

Friday, 29 February 2008

Be sure to regularly clean up after your pet, and dispose of waste in the trash or sanitary sewer system. When washed into storm drains, the bacteria that is associated with animal feces can pose a serious threat to human health. Don't forget to bring a baggie when you walk your pet, and pick up after your pooch whether you're on public or private land - it's the law!

If you treat your pet or yard for fleas and ticks, ask your vet about natural alternatives and try to find the safest available products. Flea dip liquid is a toxic substance that should be disposed of as a household hazardous waste.
