Slasher for those who may not be aware -

I’ve never used it directly so can’t say. I can tell which councils use it on their roadsides, as weeds sprayed with gly fade to yellow before dying off, slasher busts the leaf cells open, causing them to dry out and collapse, it’s more effective in dry weather, and where the weed has direct sunlight on it. When cold, the weed flops like it’s been bitten by the frost. I don’t believe it kills the roots either.
