The question we get more than any other. Here's the straight version.
The ingredients
Five of them, listed on every bag: sodium chloride, citric acid, lemongrass oil, peppermint oil, garlic oil. Food-grade and botanical — nothing you'd need a hazmat suit to handle.
The common-sense rule
Made with food-grade and botanical ingredients. As with any product, keep pets from eating it directly and check the ingredient list if your pet has known sensitivities to any of them. That last part matters: some pets are sensitive to specific botanicals, the way some people are sensitive to specific foods.
In practice
Shake the powder along the travel lines — foundation edges, seawalls, fence lines — not in the middle of the lawn where the dog rolls. Once it's down in a band, it stays where you put it.
