Maggie's Farm Products Are Pet-Friendly

Our Maggie's Farm insecticides that are derived from plants are classified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), as being "minimum risk". This means that they pose little or no threat to human health or the environment. Essential oils from plants are more tolerant of toxicity with synthetic chemicals. They're extremely potent and may be harmful to insects, but they are safe to use around pets and humans if they are used in a safe manner. They won't cause harm to your pet and will not stay in the surroundings. If you use them as directed, our pet safe insect spray or dust are more pet-friendly.

Some plant oils can be problematic for cats including wintergreen oil. Cats don't have the ability to digest essential oils like other mammals. Do not apply products to areas cats frequent. Our Home Bug Spray and Ant & Roach Killer, Yard bug spray and Mosquito Fogger contain wintergreen oil.
