Terms and Conditions

Agreement to these terms

These terms and conditions govern your use of yardtactic.com. By accessing or using the site you agree to be bound by them. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

We may revise these terms from time to time. The version published on this page is the one in force, and the last updated date above tells you when it changed. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the revised terms.

Who may use the site

You must be at least 13 years old to use Yard Tactic. If you are under 18, you may use the site only with the involvement of a parent or guardian. The content assumes an adult is making the purchasing and property decisions.

Several topics covered here involve tools, chemical products, electric fencing and trapping equipment. Nothing on this site is a recommendation that a minor purchase, install or operate any of it.

The nature of our content

Yard Tactic publishes general information about yard pest and predator control. Our guides are research based, assembled from manufacturer specifications, published documentation and verified owner reports. We do not conduct hands on field testing or laboratory testing, and we do not claim to.

Information here is not professional advice. It is not veterinary advice, legal advice, agricultural advice, or the advice of a licensed pest control operator. Wildlife behaviour, soil conditions, climate, local regulation and property layout vary enormously, and a recommendation that works well in one yard can fail in another. You are responsible for deciding whether anything you read here suits your own situation, and for checking the current law where you live before you trap, relocate, exclude or treat any animal.

Always read and follow the manufacturer’s label and instructions for any product you buy. Where a label conflicts with something written on this site, the label wins.

Affiliate links and commercial relationships

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. Yard Tactic is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, and as an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. Our full statement is on the affiliate disclosure page.

We are not the seller. Any purchase you make is a contract between you and the retailer or manufacturer, on their terms. Pricing, availability, delivery, warranty, returns and product safety are matters for them, not for us.

User submitted content

Where comments or other submissions are enabled, you keep ownership of what you write, and you grant us a non exclusive, royalty free licence to display, store, reproduce and moderate it in connection with the site.

You are responsible for what you submit. Do not post anything unlawful, defamatory, harassing, deceptive, infringing, or containing personal information about someone else. Do not post spam, promotional links or automated content. We may edit, refuse or remove any submission at our discretion and without notice, and we are under no obligation to publish anything.

Intellectual property

All text, graphics, charts, layouts, page designs and compiled data on this site are the property of Yard Tactic and are protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. Product names, brand names and logos referred to on this site belong to their respective owners and are used for identification only. Their appearance here does not imply any endorsement, affiliation or sponsorship.

What you may and may not do with our content is set out in detail on the terms of use page.

Disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability

The site and everything on it are provided on an as is and as available basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non infringement. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error free, or that specifications and other information are complete, current or accurate at the moment you read them.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Yard Tactic and anyone associated with it will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, data, property or goodwill, arising out of your use of the site, your reliance on anything published here, or your purchase or use of any product mentioned here. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

You agree to indemnify and hold Yard Tactic harmless from any claim or demand arising out of your breach of these terms or your misuse of the site.

External links

This site links to third party websites, including retailers, manufacturers, university extension services and government wildlife agencies. We do not control those sites and we are not responsible for their content, their accuracy or their privacy practices. A link is not an endorsement of everything on the destination site.

Governing law, severability and contact

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. You agree that any dispute arising from these terms or your use of the site will be handled in the state or federal courts located in California.

If any provision of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest remains in full force. Our failure to enforce a provision on one occasion is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later.
