Dog waste, parasites and your yard
Understand dog waste and parasite exposure in yards, with prompt pickup, handwashing and veterinary prevention guidance for Colorado families.
What to know
Dog waste, parasites and your yard
Dog feces can contain parasite eggs and other organisms. Some infections can spread through contaminated soil or accidental ingestion. Prompt pickup, handwashing and veterinary parasite prevention are complementary habits; scheduled scooping removes visible feces but cannot sterilize a lawn or guarantee prevention.
