  1. Do not use grazon 90 round trees, and if you use roundup then you're a brave man! There are some safer alternatives that will not kill the trees, read this blog on controlling weeds around trees Weed Control Around Trees | Agrigem Blog
  2. Its a very good product, but think about the environment and consider using glyphosate through a weed wipe. Gives better results too!
  3. I buy broadshot from Agrigem Ltd It does a fantastic job of Rhodeys and other forestry weeds
  4. glyphosate is probably the safest pesticide ever made. Not only to the environment, but also to humans and animals. In the 70's, the roundup reps used to drink a pint of it to prove how safe it is, and there was no ill effects with them. in my opinion, if the product is used safely and correctly this product poses no adverse effect
  5. Never heard of this, but from a chemical point of view it sounds very hazardous! You would be far better to do any cutting required and then either spray or paint on the weed killer to the tree stump. There are some great products on the market now such as Broadshot or glyphosate which will do a very good job of Rhodeys
  6. Roundup would kill the trees depending on the size, for best control apply in Sept/Oct so the glyphosate is transported down to the roots.
  7. Kerb Granules are a very good product, but there are many ways of controlling weeds around trees, read this useful blog from Agrigem Ltd for some ideas. Weed Control Around Trees | Agrigem Blog
