What possible agenda could they have in wanting Round-Up destroyed, other than to bankrupt a successful company and to cause food shortages? Why is it that virtually every Leftist cause leads directly to widespread death and economic decay?
A fire?
A Rat Terrier would love to take care of your rodent problem. Chipmunks don’t dare show themselves around my place. My fella just now dug out a big fat mole and killed it.
Well, that question leaves open a long list of potential answers. I'll just name a few off the top of my head. I know there are many other explanations just as deserving.
First, they are stupid.
Second, they are self-centered.
Third, they are all about "feelings", how they feel themselves, not the recipients of their stupidity.
Fourth, they never calculate the unintended consequences of their feel-good actions.
Fifth, did I already say they are stupid? :-)
“Obama’s EPA took off market a chemical that kills chipmunks 3 or 4 years ago. I hated using it, but it was one produce that worked...”
Jack Russell Terror....no more chipmunks!
“What -does- work on Dallas grass?”
Obama’s sons? It works on DC, Baltimore, Detroit, etc grass, I can’t see why it wouldn’t work on Dallas grass.
Serial killer, lawn maintenance jihadi, mass extinction event, that enough?

It kills gut bacteria people need for digestion and immune system response.
Get a good pellet rifle. And remember always have fun!
A good friend of mine, a business owner I work back and forth with for years, went through chemo for Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma a couple of years ago. His family farms the largest amount of acreage in our county, he’s been around Roundup his entire adult life and even though he doesn’t farm he’s helped the family out every spring since he was a kid.
He beat it, but the Dr.s all told him it was really rare to get this at his age. He researched it more and if you dig deep enough you can find that Monsanto hasn’t been exactly truthful in their claim that the stuff is so safe you could drink it. There is a class action suit starting up from all the farmers and their kids who have developed cancer who coincidentally were in prolonged exposure to the stuff. I’m on the fence because I really don’t know enough to make a firm decision, but billions and billions of dollars can make for some creative test results, if you don’t think that then just look at global warming and how that worked out for them.

Well you aren’t supposed to drink it
Do they kill ground hogs?
Several Tips to Get Rid of Chipmunks.
I am having a tree stump removed and the tree specialist saw chipmunks had tunnels in the stump...so I am also looking for ways to dislodge them!
LOL I have 2 dogs already, but maybe my next will be a Jack Russel or Rat Terrier :)
Thanks...As I just posted, I already have 2 dogs...Obviously they are not much of a deterent :(
Next dog very well may be a Terrier!!
Not sure where in Florida you are but I know here in St. Lucie there is concern about run off into the Indian River Lagoon. Not only from agriculture but from sources such as golf courses. I know Ag is not the all time villain some point it to be and most farmers and ranchers take excellent care to protect the environment.
It is a problem that people don’t get the difference between using a weed killer to pretty up a yard and using it to protect an essential food crop (for people or livestock). Ignorance about the day to day operation of a cattle ranch and other ag operations doesn’t help.
Not sure where you are in Florida but you should check out Florida Farm Bureau’s “Young Farmer and Ranchers” program. A close friend of my son’s is very active in it here in St. Lucie County. They are doing a lot to support agriculture here in Florida.
You eat it when you eat food sprayed with it.
Many wheat farmers spray the wheat crop right before harvest to increase yield.
Resistant plants contain it at harvest.
Other plants pinck it up through the soil.
