Best Answer

Answer:

Scotts Turf Builder With SummerGuard. Kills feas, ticks and ants. Doesn't kill small brown ants in my yard. Recommend putting it down before a rain storm or watering the lawn after putting it down. Also recommend wearing protective gloves. It does sting if it gets on your skin. Make sure the bag reads: Kills fleas, ticks and ants on the front side lower left hand corner.

What can I use to eliminate urine odor in the yard area just outside the back door?

When it rains my 2 females usually will just squat right outside the door to go quickly, but the odor lingers and gets strong when the weather stays humid and damp. I would like to neutralize the smell. Any products or other solutions available?

Answer:

train them to go off the porch. my mom's ancient dog tried that but my mom trained her to go off the porch into the yard even if snow was on the ground like my dog does..now the tiny old dog who is more blind then not goes at least 5 feet off the porch even when it's pouring.

Answer:

Thank you for your question. Any toy that is not made out of fabric (such as a stuffed toy) would be ideal for outside. Rope toys, balls, or other plastic or rubber toys would be good outdoor toys. However, regardless of the toy, we always recommend that you supervise your pets when they are playing with any toys to avoid the risk of choking.
