Branch Creek Safer Play 10-0-2 is a granular fertilizer with a pre-emergent herbicide that provides superior control of crab grass and other grassy and broadleaf weeds. Branch Creek Safer Play with Weed Control is a novel, natural weed control product that is not comprised of toxic synthetic chemistries.
Branch Creek Safer Play with Weed Control has two novel modes of action:

  1. Burns seed hairs of weeds without affecting desired turf grass.
  2. Proteins and Polypeptides restrict the germination of seeds

This unique double action gives Branch Creek Safer Play with Weed Control superior pre-emergent control over other organic products.

Branch Creek Safer Play 10-0-2 Benefits

  • The Pre-Emergent technology allows for natural weed free turf unlike any other in natural land care.
  • Novel and unique double action allows for superior Pre-Emergent weed control.
  • Branch Creek Safer Play 10-0-2 with Weed Control is 25(b) exempt, which means it is a minimal risk pesticide that does not need to be registered with an EPA number. 25(b) products can be used in many instances where pesticides are banned or not wanted. Check your local regulations.

Branch Creek Safer Play 10-0-2 Application Directions

  • Apply 3-5 pounds per 1,000 square feet.  Use 5 lb. rate on high pressure crabgrass turfs.

Application Timing

  • For optimal results, apply 10-0-2 over two treatments.  Apply the first treatment when soil temperatures reach 50°F (for optimal green-up and early season weeds). Apply the second application in 4 weeks following that for later spring weeds such as crabgrass.
  • For a single application, apply Safer Play 10-0-2 before soil temperatures reach 57°F for 3 consecutive days (you can check your soil temperatures by FOLLOWING THIS LINK and simply entering your zip code).
  • These temperatures will usually occur in Mid-March to April (or after turf breaks dormancy), but follow soil temperatures as above for the optimal results.

Application Notes

  • For best results, water lightly after application if rain is not forecast for 24 hours.  Irrigation or significant rainfall within a couple days of application will improve outcomes.
  • For best results, apply this product within a few days after mowing and avoid moving for a few days after application.

        Chewed up easily
        Size: Extra Large, Color: Matisse green, Size: Extra Large, Color: Matisse green
        Not durable for a heavy chewer, would not recommend. Didn't even have 24hrs. Our pup figured out how to get the food but couldn't figure out how to spin it. And had the flaps chewed apart in a short amount of time

        Well-Made Toy, but Too Stiff and Large for Small Dogs
        I purchased this product for my dog Woody to use as a treat-dispensing toy. While the toy is well-made and feels durable, it wasn’t the best fit for my small Maltipoo. The central roller mechanism is quite stiff and heavy, making it difficult for a small dog to rotate or engage with it effectively. In terms of installation and setup, it was easy and straightforward. The adjustable settings are a nice touch and allow for some control over treat release, which is great. However, due to the size and resistance of the roller, the toy seems more suited for medium to large dogs rather than small breeds. It offers good value for money considering the build quality, but I would recommend it only for dogs with enough strength to interact with the roller comfortably.

        Entertainment for You --- Fun for your Dog
        Size: 4 INCH, Pattern Name: IQ TREAT BALL 4"
        I had seen a friend with this toy for her dog. I asked if I could try it for my two dogs (mini schnauzer & chihuahua/pug mix). My dogs loved it! The only way they'll stop playing with it is if you pick it up or when they finally realize there aren't anymore treats available. I now own two of the 5" (which is really 4" in diameter) and one 3". If I know I'll be gone for a while, I'll load up all 3 and they'll have more than enough food/stimulation while I'm out. I am so satisfied with these toys, I looked up the manufacturer and purchased the Large Buster Food Cube. Why? -Simply for variety. The Buster doesn't get quite as good of a following from my dogs as the ball, but it has its own advantages. The chips seen in another reviewers photo(s)..., this happened to me as well. When inspecting the three IQ Balls I have for my dogs, no chipping of the small fins as shown in the photo(s) changed the integrity of the ball. The chips will most likely happen to everyone if your dog is even somewhat of a chewer. I'm not putting these on display for family/friends to come see. They're dog toys. If your dog is a fierce chewer, only use the ball as an entertaining feeding option. The Buster Food Cube could be used permanently with the most determined chewers. Please don't be swayed by those photos. I was a little concerned when I had seen them prior to ordering. Now, I know how inconsequential those chips are and how much those photos make it appear like a potential deal-breaker. Tennis balls and the Kong toy used to be my favorites for my dogs. Now the Treat Ball and Buster Food Cube are the favorites. Treat Ball - Pros ----------------- -More fun for my dogs than the Buster Food Cube -Adjustable food dispensing - you can set it to be depleted quickly, the cube will take a lot longer, relatively Buster Food Cube - Pros ------------------------ -Holds more food -A bit more challenging than the ball -Very quiet compared to the ball (you'll experience a constant rolling until the ball crashes into your wall, furniture, etc. - nothing harmful to either) -Rarely, if ever does it get stuck (with the ball - even the larger size - you may find times when your dog has given up because it has been lost under an accommodating piece of furniture; the cube is truly too large to get trapped) -More durable than the ball - the most determined chewers will not have success destroying this toy *** If OurPets would ever make a larger sized ball (Buster Food Cube diameter), I would buy that in a second. This would keep it from being stuck as often and I would like the increased food capacity, as the cube has.

        great
        Size: 4 INCH, Pattern Name: IQ TREAT BALL 4"
        This ball is great for my two and a half year old border collie mix. I give his breakfast through this ball, and it keeps him occupied for 20 minutes total. The ball won't fill up a whole cup of kibble, so I have to fill it up two times. This ball takes him longer and tires him more than the Tug a Jug, which only takes him about five minutes to empty. As he empties the ball twice, he will pant and go lap on some water. It's good to see he's getting some kind of work for his food as opposed to just chomping it down from the bowl with no effort. The only downside is that a lot of times the lid gets loose even if you close it pretty secure. One time the lid came off completly as my dog was playing with it, exposing all the kibble. To prevent this I used some strength to close the lid very tight, but later I could not open it back up! It took a grown male to open it back. My dog does not chew on this ball due to the awkward shape and material(hard plastic). I and my dog have dropped this a couple of times on both laminate and wood floor, but I see no crack on the ball so far. It seems durable. Good ball to make your dog work for his breakfast or dinner. UPDATE: My dog still loves this toy. With the difficulty setting set to max, it is the slowest treat dispensing toy in my collection(buster cube, tug a jug, kong wobbler). That's good, it lets him burn off more energy. Also since the ball doesn't hold a full cup of kibble, I would pour half and the rest on his regular food bowl. I place the ball next the the bowl and give a release "OK!". Guess where my dog goes? He runs off with the ball! Even after realizing that there is food in the bowl (He puts his nose inside the bowl for a second and then goes to the ball) where he could just eat it, he perfers to get his food from the ball.
