Preventing pets from coming into contact with pyrethrum-based products involves several precautions:
- Secure Storage: Store pyrethrum products in a secure location, out of reach of pets and children.
- Use in Well-Ventilated Areas: Apply pyrethrum products in well-ventilated areas to prevent inhalation of fumes.
- Avoid Cross-Use: Never use dog flea and tick products on cats, as they are more sensitive to pyrethrum.
- Supervise Application: When applying pyrethrum products, ensure pets are kept away until the product is fully dry.
By taking these precautions, you can significantly reduce the risk of accidental exposure.
