    Q
    Is Ferti-Lome Come and Get It! Fire Ant Killer safe to use around animals such as chickens that forage about?
    A

    Ferti-Lome Come and Get It! Fire Ant Killer does not have any recommendations on the label for chickens. So you would most likely need to keep them out of the treatment area for at least 48 hours. We would recommended Extinguish Plus Fire Ant Bait instead which is labeled for pasture and rangelands.
