    Can't think of the name right now but it's one of the more commenly used weed killers on the market. Just check your local supermarket or hardware shop it will have a label on it that says say around pets and children. However still only use it in areas you really have to and also use it at a time when it's dry outside so that it will dry quickly don't let pets or children on it until it's well dried in. Obviusly in pets I mean cats or dogs wether pet and children friendly or not never use it on grass used for animals like rabbits or guinea pigs of course.

    I think Tescos and some hardware shops do an organic weedkiller as well or was that a pets killer..or mabey it was both.

    Just read the labels and on most will tell you if they are pet friendly, if it says nothing then you can assume they are not. Chemical weed killers (or most of them) will be all out I'm afraid if you have a pets.
