Dog waste poses threat to water
By Traci Watson, USA TODAY

Pick up and discard dog droppings from turf areas. The droppings
will burn grass plants if left for an extended period of time.

Make it a habit of regularly picking up your dog's droppings, or
harmful bacteria will grow on it.

Besides drawing flies and stinking.

The flies that land on your dog's **** also land on you,your kids and
your food(if picnicking,barbecuing).

If you spray the crap with water and it disintegrates there aren't any
flies, imo.




No,they've already left to hang out by your screen door,and in your
garage.
So they can enter your house when you open a door.

Besides,flies can still land on tiny bits of ****.Just spraying it with
water only keeps it fresher for the flies.

Do you use manure on your lawn?
