GENERAL INFORMATION
ON PESTICIDES:

     All Island Landscape primarily uses pesticides that are registered for "General Use". The "General Use" classification means that these pesticides can be purchased by anyone. The pesticides that are used by licensed applicators while still classified as "General Use", in most cases, have higher percentages of the active ingredients. Keep in mind the following list is not used for every lawn, if fact, most lawns will be treated with only one maybe two of the pesticides.

     EPA signal words defined: CAUTION means the pesticide is slightly toxic if eaten, absorbed through the skin, inhaled, or causes slight eye/skin irritation. WARNING indicates the pesticide product is moderately toxic if eaten, absorbed through the skin, inhaled, or causes moderate eye/skin irritation. DANGER means that the pesticide product is highly toxic. It is corrosive or causes severe burning to the eyes or skin that can result in irreversible damage. DANGER-POISON means that the pesticide product is highly toxic, but only if eaten, absorbed through the skin, or inhaled. This label will have the skull and cross bones.
