Scotts Bonus S Fertilizer Warnings

Scotts Bonus S (Type of warnings right on the package):  

• Do not use under trees, shrubs, bedding plants or garden plants.
• Do not apply on or under the branch spread (rootzone) of trees, shrubs, bedding plants, flowers or garden plants.
• Do not apply by hand or hand-held rotary devices.
• Do not apply this product in a way that will contact any person either directly or through drift.
• Runoff and drift from treated areas may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in neighboring areas.
• This product is toxic to aquatic invertebrates.

It’s truly amazing that anyone ever buys and uses these and other “Weed and Feed” - but then again, nobody reads the labels!! The reason for these warnings is that these products will damage and even kill the roots of desirable plants.
