Question 1

Pet friendly?

Accepted Answer

Read the label - at LEAST in the short term, no it is NOT pet friendly (i.e. NOT pet safe).  Supposedly when it's dry, they say it's safe to let animals and children on the grass.  But there are all sorts of restrictions on how long before you can seed, lay sod, etc., which says the active ingredients are still there.  I would not put my pets (or children on the grass for an extended period of time with this or most any other weed-killing product.  A friend in the pest control business (former president of his state's pest control association) would concur.

Question 2

Will this kill crab grass also?

Accepted Answer

It did not kill my crabgrass... I also applied too much and it browned my lawn.  I have bermuda grass and it killed it, but crabgrass continues to spread.

Question 3

Does this product actually get rid of dandilions? I need a product that I can spread across the entire lawn and not kill the grass.

Accepted Answer

It works great on dandelions; I am seeing a big improvement in my yard. However, I use a gardening service, so my lawn is susceptible to whatever the mower brings from other yards.  I also have wrought iron fencing so dandelion seeds will blow in.  This is an ongoing process, and you should follow Scotts recommendations for optimum results.

Question 4

Do you have to mow lawn first?

Accepted Answer

Tall grass can be mowed a day or two ahead, do not cut the grass while spreading the weed and feed and don't cut the grass and later that day apply the weed and feed. Either cut the grass a couple of days ahead or wait a couple of days after applying before cutting the grass. Apply when the grass is either wet or after applying add some water to help it stick to the weeds, do not wash it off by overwatering.
