No, Milky Spore Lawn Spreader Mix will not harm your pet if used as directed. Be sure to keep pets out of the treated area while applying and after the product has been watered in. You will wait 36 to 48 hours before watering in the Spore. Make sure you water the Spore before raking or mowing your lawn. The whole idea is to soak the Spore into the soil where it will become available to grubs feeding on the roots of grass. Simply use an oscillating hose sprayer for 15 to 20 minutes over the entire treated area. There may still be some white residue but this is chalk used as carrier for the spores. Once the area has dried completely, it is safe for pets to return to the area.
