P.S. I'm qualified in the use of all Pesticides, Herbicides, and Fungicides, and whilst training, we were given much information, that the public are not privileged to know, and much, that I'm bound not to tell.[/quote]

I have had pesticide certification in PA since 1978. I have supervised grounds maintenance crews for over 31 years. Never was I sworn to secrecy or forbidden to share what I learned with the public.
Are you sure you're not just trolling?

With reactions like the last two, there really proved to be no point in helping, what do I care if you kill all your prized plants?
I'm being called a troll now.
Well, standards really have dropped, even in the Gardening forum!
Seems I'm not welcome here.
Why do I bother?

Oh boy.

Much that you are bound not to tell? Really?

I don't remember any Secret Squirrel info when I was certified or any of the subsequent training to maintain my certification by the State of California. BTW which has the toughest certification and State regulatory statues in the US.

I couldn't give a fig about the US's regulations, I've seen what's put in your food, what difference are a few herbicides going to make, and how you use them.

On your heads be it.

Not my place to give advice.

I have never killed a prized plant with RoundUp, because I use it cautiously and judiciously.
