[QUOTE="Texasmark, post: 1504590, member: 27848"] You sure of what you say here? The reason I ask is I killed all my Bass of any size in my pond last year and in reading up on it the author of the article stated that it was probably the surfactant that did it, not the herbicide itself, nor oxygen depletion. Surfactant was TSC standard inexpensive product used as directed. If you have a dish soap that mommy can put her ungloved hands into and it works as you said, sounds like it will work for me...worth a try. I read some labels of dish soaps and they indicate a surfactant in the contents, don't say what it is. On the fish, whatever it is, keeps their gills from absorbing oxygen from the water and they just suffocate.....was what mine were doing....just floating around, moving a fin or two, and slowly dying. --------------- To keep this on topic I started with Glyphosate and it worked ok then a year or so later, I added 2-4-D to the mix, then a year or so later, a surfactant and I now get good coverage with unregulated chemicals for one annual spraying.....no brush included. However, I have killed brush deliberately by soaking the leaves when in the growth mode. Grazon P+D is a product I bought when I had my sprayer's permit and the P (Pectilorin or something like that as I recall) is what whacked the brush while the D (2-4-D of some sort I assume...don't remember what was in the contents label) got the weeds.
