Questions and answers from customers

    Will Cropro Buzzard Insecticide hurt birds, and does deer like it?

  1. Q Will Cropro Buzzard Insecticide hurt birds, and does deer like it?
    Asked by Pj on March 5, 2023 4:10 am
    Answered by the admin

    Cropro Buzzard Insecticide does not list any restraints, precautions or protections that list 'birds' safety regarding the products use. Providing the insecticide is sprayed safely and according to the directions of use label and allowed to dry, It should not threaten bird species.  Cropro Buzzard Insecticide is not registered or recommended for use on or around deer. It is doubtful that deer would like the insecticide.
