Grass worries

[Rupertsmom]

We have two baby sulcata and they love weeds and grass from the yard but I know before we got them we had yard treated for bugs and ants which is a pet safe spray as we have dogs. Also quarterly we fertilize and weed feed. I know this is all very bad for our babies so my question is how long do we need to discontinuethese things before our grass is safe for them and also how do we treat for bugs and ants now as we ha e very bad ants.

I'm not certain how long you have to wait until the yard is tort safe. With plants it's different because you can change out the soil, and I always wait at least 6 months with those.
I can help with bugs though! For those you can use diatomaceous earth. It was recommended to me here by many people, and I have used it both indoors and out for ants and other pests with great results. Just make sure you get the food grade DE, as seen here:

Just set aside a portion that will be free of sprays and you can always harvest from that area.
