let’s get to the facts.
Because there is a lot more to know about dog poop than just the odors…
Dog waste can contain harmful bacteria and parasites like E. coli, roundworms, and giardia, which can linger in your yard long after the poop is gone.
Dog Poop Isn’t “Just Fertilizer”
Dogs are creatures of habit and often return to familiar spots, which can cause increased wear, odor, and sanitation concerns if waste isn’t removed regularly.
Dogs Will Revisit Their “Favorite Spots”
The average dog poops 1–3 times a day. That adds up fast—especially in multi-dog households.
Most Dogs Go… A Lot
Using the same scooping tools from yard to yard without sanitizing can spread illness. That’s why Poop Patrol sanitizes all equipment after every single visit.
One Dirty Tool Can Spread Germs
Even after visible waste is removed, bacteria and parasites can remain in the soil, making regular and thorough cleanup an important part of maintaining a healthy yard.
