Thanks to everyone....don't have to rip it out now!!

It is not poisonous but I would not recommend they eat the berries as it still may cause an upset stomach. It may not appear on the list of known harmful plants but still not an idea to eat it.
Thanks Ethel, I very nearly had to correct the spelling myself!! but I had to laugh!! pronounced = cotonee-aster!!
Sorry Lydia
