I'm thinking of having chem lawn spray my yard for weeds. Will that poison the rabbits outside?
I hope not.
Answers:
My neighbor has been having their lawn sprayed by ChemLawn regularly for the last few years and everytime they come, we are warned to keep our pets away. If there's a possibility of harming a dog, i'd say there is a good chance the rabbits could be harmed as well.
you should ask them. But normally not.
Chances are slim. Most modern herbacides used in residential environments are salt based and relatively low toxicity. Similarly, they will affect the taste of the plant.
Only if they eat alot of your grass/weeds. More than likely it will not harm them to the extent of killing them. Keep everything trimmed down and all should be ok.
Chances are the rabbit will be smart enough to eat elsewhere. However, you will be poisoning yourself, your children and your pets.There is NO such thing as a safe chemical weed killer. The new ones are " safer", meaning that they don't cause noticeable birth defects in us or other animals, and they won't kill on contact with mammals. They do Kill all the beneficial microbes in your lawn. Agent orange, and 2,4,5-T were both considered safe for humans before. Our need for a "weed" free lawn has damaged the environment almost as much as motor vehicles and industrial pollution.
This depends on the nature of the chemical and whether the rabbits have access to your property where they can eat the contaminated weeds. In turn they "may" be poisoned and die.
Yes, keep them away for a couple of days or after some rain so it dilutes a wee bit.
