X-No-Archive:
I am trying to find out some information about some different herbicides/weedkillers, and the effect they would have on trees if applied to the roots (in solution). The active ingredients in each of these three herbicides are:
Product 1: 225 g/kg Glyphosate, 450 g/kg Simazine Product 2: 750g/KG Chlorthal Dimethyl Product 3: 67.5g/Kg Dichlobenil
Is your goal to get rid of the trees, or other stuff growing around the trees?
What kind of information?
Dangerous Bill
If worse comes to worse Google it.
Glyphosate is absorbed through the leaves, not the roots.
I do not provide that type of information to the public. I.e., for obvious reasons. However if you have a question on proper tree care I would be glad to help you out.
The original message sounds like a famously stupid one I saw in a cooking group about a year ago.
Subject line: Can I make lasagna at home? Message: How?
That's all. Just "How?" Not a clue as to whether the OP wanted to make the finished dish, or make the noodles from scratch. Nothing. And of course, the idiot never came back to expound on the subject any further.
This individual is neither a consulting forester, tree expert, arborist, or biologist. He is, however, a fraud.
Don Staples claims to be a forester. His website address is
However I have a very strong background in TREE BIOLOGY.

OK, you two have a feud going on elsewhere. Don't foul sci.chem with your nonsense.
Come on kids, you're disturbing the neighbors. They don't love our wittle wood-cutter and our big, strong, back alley, tree surgeon the way that we do or, they would have drowned you in the alkanox sink. They are kinda cute when they are asleep. We kinda kept hoping that they would be the new Lum and Abner. Sorry that they got out but they keep digging holes under the fence.
Phone Don Staples to kill the tree roots. He hates trees.

He refuses define what a forester is to him. DON STAPLES please define what a forester is.

There are some good chemistry articles regarding tree chemistry here for those who like to read well written stuff.
Troubles in the Rhizosphere and A Touch of Chemistry to name two.

What, you did not have any friends when you were a kid? Sad!

Doubtful. This feud has been going on for a while, they just exported it here.
One of the times a killfile is your friend.
