Think dog p**p is just a little mess? Think again! Leaving it behind can seriously damage your lawn, harm the environment, and put your family’s health at risk.

*Dog p**p isn’t fertilizer — it actually “burns” your grass and causes ugly brown spots.
*It carries harmful bacteria like E. coli and salmonella, plus parasites that can infect both pets and people.
*Rain washes it into waterways, polluting lakes and streams and causing harmful algae blooms.
*For families with kids, even tiny leftover traces can be dangerous for backyard play.
*Plus, piles of waste attract pests and, well… stink up your yard.

The best way to protect your lawn and loved ones? Clean up regularly! But if scooping isn’t your thing, Pet Waste Wizard has you covered in Champaign-Urbana and nearby.

✅ Weekly, twice-weekly, or one-time cleanups
✅ Lawn-safe deodorizing and sanitizing

Dog p**p can cause serious damage to your lawn, harm the environment, and even pose health risks to you and your family.
