If you've used Method cleaner in your home, it's generally safe for pets as long as you follow some precautions.
- Ensure the cleaning solution is fully dry before allowing pets to walk on the floors or surfaces.
- Rinse any area that has a noticeable residue with water and let it dry completely.
- Keep pets away from wet surfaces until they are fully dry.
Many household cleaners can be safe for pets when used properly. It's important to let surfaces dry fully before allowing pets to interact with them because ingestion of concentrated cleaning solutions could pose health risks. Always keep the cleaning products stored securely out of reach of curious pets.
