FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SCOOP THE POOP WEEK IN TIME FOR SENSE OF SMELL DAY
Between the snows of winter and the warmth of spring, comes National Scoop
the Poop Week. Matthew Osborn, creator of the International Directory of Dog
Waste Removal Services, says now is the time to be aware of the necessity and
benefits of making sure the "canine land mines" left behind by our furry
friends is cleaned up, removed, and disposed of properly.
With so many dogs in so many back yards, failure to clean up is more than an
inconvenience. It's a serious public health issue. Rains wash the poop into
streams and groundwater supplies; public beaches have even been closed due to
bacterial growth attributed to dog feces left in back yards. Flies are
attracted to uncleaned yards, where they lay their eggs, increasing
their population and the problems they cause.
And, Osborn says, "The stuff is disgusting! Who can enjoy their back yards
with piles of dog poop? Kids can't play, the neighbors hate the smell,
nobody can have backyard cookouts until it's cleaned up!"
That's why dozens of dog-waste removal services across the USA have chosen
the last week of April as National Scoop the Poop Week, reminding dog owners
that now is the time to get yards, kennels and dog runs cleaned. Dog owners
and others can find information gathered from the experience of people who
make their livings by cleaning up after dogs at the Scoopers and Friends
Discussion Board at The Professional Pooper-Scoopers website: www.pooper-
scoper.com, which also features The International Directory of Dog Waste
Removal Services, listing companies willing to do the chore for a fee.
Osborn adds, "By getting those yards cleaned up now, people will be ready for
National Sense of Smell Day!" That's Saturday April 26, sponsored by Sense of
Smell Institute, www.senseofsmell.org.
