Dog Waste and Your Health
When infected dog droppings are left on the ground, the eggs of the roundworms and other parasites can linger in the soil for years. As a result, anyone who comes in contact with the soil also comes in contact with the infected eggs.
Protect Your Family
Children love to play outside, but don't always think about where their hands have been before their rub their eyes, or put their hands in their mouth. This innocent act could have a very serious health risk if they are unaware they have come in contact with pet waste.
Pregnant women can also be at serious risk, as parasitic infections can make humans very sick, which in turn could cause serious harm to the unborn child.
Protect Your Environment
Pet waste contains bacteria and parasites, as well as organic matter and nutrients, notably nitrogen and phosphorous. The organic matter and nutrients contained in Pet waste can degrade water quality. When Pet waste is washed into a surface water body, the waste decays. This process of breaking down the organic matter in the waste uses up dissolved oxygen and releases ammonia. Low oxygen levels, increased ammonia and warm summer water temperatures can kill fish.
