[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 14873"] >Read the label. There is a domestic animal precaution that ingestion of the product or LARGE amounts of freshly sprayed forage MAY result in gastrointestional irritation. (diarrhea, vomiting etc.) Just provide the animal with plenty of water to prevent dehydration. Confining an animal to freshly sprayed forage would be a poor decision.
