In this day and age, they say anything can cause cancer. It's worse in California. I'm not sure if it's the sun or what, but I've read the labels. If you live in California, you have to be more careful.

Glyophosate is pretty safe. Even the EPA says it's not carcinogenic to humans. I think you worry too much.

That's why I asked at TSC to help me with what to buy to kill the grass and weeds in my driveway because I wasn't sure. Like I said, the first guy sold me Amine 400 2,4-D. That didn't work. The second guy sold me Barrier. After the fact, I looked at reviews for Barrier. It had more 1 star than 5 star reviews!
LOL!
No, you know I wasn't. But in all fairness, ignorance is bliss I hear.

Honestly, the people working at TSC aren't exactly agronomists. They just know they sell herbicides..... probably think the only difference is the price!

We don't buy tractors from the big box stores so why would anyone buy other stuff....it is garbage. I go to Ewing Irrigation (a commercial irrigation supply) and purchase the "Pro" stuff. https://www.ewingirrigation.com/cata...U8IPU49kGCk%3D I'm not sure how much better it is than the box store stuff but it works pretty good for me. + the person selling it to you wasn't flipping burgers at McDonalds last week.

There we go. Thank you. I couldn't find it, and I didn't have any jugs around to look at.

Well, I did admit in post #28 that I wasn't educated on the subject!

That's just it. I'm not a farmer or professional. I just want to get my gravel driveway back. I appreciate all the comments!

I do, but only since I've had kids. Worrying used to be something I never worried about.

Now that I've got two boys, I see everything as a safety hazard.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
