Evergreen Lawn Feed - Safe For Pets And Children - But Piggies?

[smileyface:)]

Had to feed the lawn last week as it was put down as turf this summer and was suffering a bit, and haven't put the piggies on it since - but it's just lawn feed - no weed killer (little bally things) and has been well watered in with rain and hosing since - how long should I wait till the piggies go back on?

Is it best to wait for a cut or because it was a hand scattered feed and not a liquid one should I be worried about the piggies consuming it along with the grass? Or is it fine? questions, questions...!

Hope someone knows - until then - they get hand fulls of the grass from next doors untended holiday home garden! thanks!

That's a very good question! I need something to kill the moss in my grass. I emailed Greenfingers.com to ask if moss killer and the like was safe for animals that actually EAT the grass. Never got a reply. (Thanks for nothing, Greenfingers !) Some lawn products say " Safe for Pets" which I think just means cats and dogs. To be safe, I would leave it for another couple of weeks and hope we get some more rain to wash it down with.

yes, i think for dogs and cats it would be no problem - will keep nicking the neighbor's grass for a bit!

I wouldn't risk it to be honest and would leave it for a few weeks.

I'd give it a couple of weeks & a trim or two just to make sure x
