Wont do them any good, of course it will kill them.
Can you relocate the plants for 1/2 a day? or, make the dog let him put up with them and you too, they wont eat much(till harvest).

What kind of insecticide are you going to use. The only problem you are going to have is to check the half life of the chemical and then consider harvest time of your plants.

An insecticide WILL NOT kill your plants. Many of greenhouses bomb there plants to kill off unwanted pests.

Let me know what active ingredient you are using and what stage your plants are in.

You do not want to be ingesting insectide, but the half life tells how long it will be active.

Most insecticides are neutralized by water, so worse case scenario you could just give your plants a very good wash down.

I agree with plantvision, it will NOT kill your plant but your not going to be wanting to smoke pesticides. Find out how long the stuff stays active and if it is water salable. If it is water salable then throw those babies in the shower after.

Good thats better. I was concerned about the flea bomb, not much kills the little bastards so it would be harmful to your plants. Plant insecticides are ok. For eg ,spray your whole plant with bug spray and check it out the next day.:wall:

Get the pills for your dog.. I think they are about $15 each and last a month. If you have fleas in your house they will get back on the dog, bite him and die.. I wouldn't bomb my house with insecticide, plants or no plants..

My own convenient mixture, just what I had on hand but works for fleas in carpet: Boric acid (roach proof), carpet freshener, baking soda, Sevin Dust 5% mix and put back in carpet fresh shaker. Hit the tops of baseboards and the whole carpet even under furniture everything. I am tall avoid breathing the dust! Vacuum frequently apply until fleas are gone then apply one last time. 1/4 teaspoon boric acid to a quart of water is eye wash! If you need a spray just enough dish liquid (Dawn) to produce bubbles with the sprayer wet (drown) what ever it is dead no residual action, mild laxative if you drink enough!

See whats in closet have not looked in months forgot! Came back THAT WAS THE BEST YELLOW..... Got any more!? Just what fell on the floor it was SPRAYED WITH REQ.....INSECTICIDE!

Just find some : DEMONX wetable powder. Use as a broad cast spray hit baseboards and entire carpet under everything!! This is not for California so you know it will work!! Place white paper on floor and watch Fleas jump. $47 for a two - pack at DIY Pest store the additive to stop juveniles from maturing is up to you Demonx will kill them!

Just close the closet door. If you're really worried run a strip of duct tape along the bottom. That should be the only place any appreciable amount could get in.
