In about a month, our house is going to be tented to kill the nasty termite infestation we have. I live in Hawaii where it is pretty much a problem for everyone. Of course while the house is tented, we will be taking our 3 year old Sulcata Tortoise with us to a friends house. So after the tenting is removed, he'll be kept away for a good few days. But I'm worried once we return him to the house, if the poison/chemicals that were used could possibly linger around outside in the grass and kill him. He lives in the backyard 24/7. He sleeps in a dirt hole he dug and eats the grass around the yard all day long. But we usually feed him additional greens every day or every other day. What do you all think? Once the tenting is done and a few days go by, should it be safe? Or maybe I should keep him from eating the stuff in the yard for awhile to come?
