I Had a Treatment Today, What Should I Do?

April 13, 2026 by web360

If you had an AllGreen treatment today, you may have questions:

There is a flag in the front yard, but not the back. Did you do the backyard?
Can my kids play on the lawn?  
Can my dog go out?
DO I NEED TO WATER?
Can I mow my lawn?
It rained right after treatment, will it all wash away?

FLAG GUIDE FOR YOUR PROPERTY

GREEN FLAG

This indicates that your lawn did not have a pesticide applied and that you and your pets may go on the lawn immediately.

YELLOW FLAG

This means that Massachusetts Pesticide Bureau recommends that you and your pets stay off the lawn for 24 hours.
The flag and your emailed work order will have time and date the treatment was done.

MOSQUITO FLAG

This indicates you may go on landscape after 30 minutes or when treatment is dry.

GREEN FLAG
This indicates that your lawn did not have a pesticide applied and that you and your pets may go on the lawn immediately.

YELLOW FLAG
This means that Massachusetts Pesticide Bureau recommends that you and your pets stay off the lawn for 24 hours.

MOSQUITO FLAG

PLEASE NOTE:

  • We only flag the front as that is the most prominent notification point for the property. We always treat the backyard unless specifically notified otherwise.
  • The only treatment that needs to be watered in is our grub control and should be watered within three days of treatment if possible.
  • It is best if you wait a day or two to mow the lawn after our treatment.
  • Sometimes a light rain can help our treatment to activate, but if it is a heavy rain please contact us and we will come back and re-treat at no charge.
