[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 268934, member: 9"] Roundup (R) is one of several brands now on the market (since the original patent expired) of which the active ingredient is "Glyphosate". Any pesticide (herbicide, insecticide, rodenticide, aquacide, etc.) can be toxic to animals (and obviously people) if ingested, inhaled, or left on the skin. For a herbicide to be most effective it should be applied on actively growing weeds BEFORE they are mowed, and when the ambient temperatures are (probably) 70-80 deg. F. plus. Then, after probably a day or two the weeds can be "safely" mowed down since the herbicide should have translocated to the weed's root system. For safety sake, I'd keep livestock off of the area where a pesticide was applied for the recommended label time for the product. [/QUOTE]
