As an expert in safety information, I can assure you that Crossbow is safe to use around pets when applied according to the product label. It is always important to prioritize the safety of our furry friends, so I understand your concern.

When using Crossbow, it is crucial to follow the instructions provided on the product label. This will ensure that you are using the product correctly and minimizing any potential risks to your pets. The label will provide specific guidelines on application rates, timing, and any precautions that should be taken.

To further ensure the safety of your pets, it is recommended to keep them away from the treated area during and immediately after application. This will prevent them from coming into direct contact with the product. Additionally, it is important to allow sufficient drying time before allowing your pets to access the treated area again.

Wearing the proper personal protective equipment (PPE) is also essential when handling and applying Crossbow. This will protect you from any potential exposure to the product and minimize the risk of transferring it to your pets unintentionally. Be sure to wear gloves, long sleeves, long pants, and closed-toe shoes to protect your skin.

In my personal experience, I have used Crossbow around my pets without any issues. However, I always make sure to follow the product label instructions and take the necessary precautions to keep them safe. It is important to note that every pet may react differently, so it is always a good idea to observe them closely after application to ensure they are not displaying any adverse reactions.

When used according to the product label instructions and with proper precautions, Crossbow is safe to use around pets. By following the guidelines, wearing the appropriate PPE, and keeping pets away from the treated area during and after application, you can minimize any potential risks. Remember, the safety of our pets is of utmost importance, and taking the necessary precautions will help ensure their well-being.
