I have never loved using chemicals in my yard. I avoid it as much as possible. However, I do admit to using Roundup in the past to destroy poison ivy and the occasional weed in a hard to reach place.
I am now officially and publicly stating that I will no longer be using this chemical for any reason, ever again. Here is why:
The World Health Organization (WHO) has established that glyphosphate (weed killers such as Roundup) is a carcinogen with links to Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma (cancer). Please share this info with others. Link to WHO document: http://www.iarc.fr/en/media-centre/iarcnews/pdf/MonographVolume112.pdf
It has also been linked to other conditions such as dementia. Try this: http://naturalsociety.com/americans-suffering-chronic-disease-due-glyphosate-herbicides-new-study/
