When temperatures drop in Chattanooga, many homeowners assume the dog poop problem cools off too. It does not. Frozen waste does not disappear, it just waits. Whatever a dog leaves in the yard in December is often still there in March.
Warm, humid weather speeds up natural decomposition, and cold weather does the opposite. Below about 40 degrees, the microbes and insects that normally break waste down slow way down or stop working entirely, so waste left out in freezing temperatures effectively goes into storage until it thaws.
Scoopy Doo provides weekly, twice-weekly, and every-other-week pet waste removal in Chattanooga and North Georgia year round, rain, cold, or shine, starting at $20 per visit. Get a free quote at scoopychatt.com/quoterequest.
