'Roundup' Weed Killer - Glyphosate - now found in people's urine - at high concentrations!

I use it all the time, buy it regularly, it's one of the least toxic herbicides. Jeeeez you'd think it was Agent Orange the way Doorbert carries on.

oh bullshit.

our landscaper sprayed Roundup twice this year and both times our dogs would not eat for days afterwards.
Never again

Glyphosate is nasty... slow genetic killer... I've cried numerous times while researching... few hope left... planet is getting seriously fucked up. Past the point of no return.

Yup.

More fear mongering by Doorbert.

Everyday, same shit from this fruitloop.

Believe whatever you want...

You've "cried" researching it?

Fuck off, liar.

yeah, panic merchant.

And you believe whatever you want too...

I take it that you don't have bermuda or zoysia grass. They are a bitch to deal with...

You just keep spraying and using it... don't cry if you and your dearest develop organ failures in the future. The effects of Glyphosate are FAR worse than what is commonly assumed nowadays... because studies showing the severe effects are being ' killed' by the industry and governments... Remember this post... Glyphosate problem will turn out to be HUGE.

Here, have some tissues for your crocodile tears...

You obviously don't have a front or backyard.

Apartment dwellers stay out of this thread, unless you have experience with this great weed killer. Best on the market, and very VERY safe for pets, children, and other plants.

Death by Multiple Poisoning, Glyphosate and Roundup
Scientists pinpoint how very low concentrations of the herbicide and other chemicals in Roundup formulations kill human cells, strengthening the case for phasing them out, and banning all further releases of Roundup-tolerant GM crops

Also bare in mind that your exposure to toxic chemicals is 24-7 year after year..in your water, in your food, in the air..ect..this dangerous cocktail is why theres such a wide increase in cancers and other illness..
but,of course, when for instance, a company wants to put their product on the market, they will do a research on humans or other for only a relatively short time, and ONLY that one chemical and do not consider the entire spectrum of toxins nor do they consider the continuous exposure in the enviornment, result? false results, claims.

LOL...yeah, really.

He's cried over the big bad weed killer research!

Water kills more people --

"BAN WATER!!"

yeah this is that daft 'city dweller' crap, I live on 16 acres, you think I'm gonna pull all the weeds out by hand?

Get goats. Very effective.

oh 'scientistics' say so, dats why! What herbicide do you recommend, I'm on 16 acres, but say you had 200 acres, what herbicide do you endorse?

Goats eat EVERYTHING, not just weeds.

No, I don't want livestock.

Solution:

2 gallon pack of distilled vinegar.
2 gallon sprayer

Both can be found at the local big-box.

Spray the weeds on a nice, sunny day and they will not come back.

Really, this will work just as well as Roundup for a fraction of the cost and the environment will benefit.

Then why isn't it used on a 200 acre farm?

It causes birth defects,I've been a member of the midwest chemical field trial assoc. for years, have been liscensed and board certified for over 25 years. I get every newsletter out there on research and have taught classes on herbicide injury ID. They all cause problems to some extent. Round up may be the lesser of alot of evils, but still can cause excssive cell damage over a period of time

Because it doesn't work in the real world.

It may work slightly around your little backyard strawberry patch, but on multiple acres, it's incapable of handling the brush.

Hence the words "Very effective".

The worst thing about herbicides are the ready field crops which have shown to cause massive birth defects in cattle and hogs. There are reports and lab studies showing hormonal manipulation and gene suppression in humans, evil men with money will do anything to keep that vice coming in

I was exposed to the sh!t back in 2007 when the local idiot farmer did a no-till corn in a field right next to my house. Boy did that crap stink, and it burned my nose, eyes, throat and also had one of my horse's eyes running as my barn was 70 feet from where it was applied.

I had a heart to heart talk with the farmer weeks later asking him to PLEASE never use this chemical so close to my home again as I told him what it did to me and my animals. I also told him about a study back in 2005 linking this sh!t to lymphoma.

I have noticed in the years since then they have been using less no-till techniques. In the past two years, I noticed they plowed and planted the corn instead of no-till! I hope they continue this trend.

You can rent them. Some people in USA rent them to clear out places where people can't bring in machines to do the work. Cheaper too. As a result, you get poop fertilizers.
