Yes, Milorganite is safe for pets. However, it is best to keep pets off the lawn for 24-48 hours after application to allow the fertilizer to absorb into the soil and prevent them from tracking it into the house.
Milorganite can be applied any time of day, but it is best to apply it when the grass is dry and the forecast calls for no rain for at least 24 hours. This allows the fertilizer to stick to the blades of grass and absorb into the soil properly.
Milorganite should be applied every 6-8 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). In the fall, you can apply it once more before the grass goes dormant for the winter.
Yes, you can apply Milorganite with other fertilizers. However, it is best to follow the manufacturer's instructions and not exceed the recommended application rate.
Milorganite does have a distinct odor due to the organic matter it is made from. However, the odor is not harmful and will dissipate within a few days after application.
