    Default Glyso weed killer

    Just watch it when giving the weeds a squirt, did a job 2 weeks ago and in the process of spraying the weeds along the narrow side of the property near the house and fenceline I must have walked back over the treated region, roundup on the boots = dead footprints on the good section. My bad.

    Yeah it sure shows up mistakes. I have a commercial job I look after. Only hedges and a small bit of hand weeding plus a nature strip to mow. Was there this week and nature strip had been mowed. There are about 30 to 40 plants in a low hedge on one side of the driveway. Half of these were showing signs of dying off. I was speaking to the owner and we couldn't work out why until he mentioned Council was there 2 weeks ago.

    Had a look out the front and you could see where they had sprayed around the base of the street tree. Dont know why because I snip around it. Look up and down the street an all trees were the same. I said to the owner were they spraying and he said yes. I said was it a windy day and he said yes. BINGO. Thats why your hedge is dying. Told him to take it up with Council.
    Cheers

    We're all allowed one mistake aren't we...

    I once left a tap on a faulty irrigation system, cost me nearly $200 because a tennant at the property called realestate when they saw water coming from garden after hours and they called plumber, plumber charged what plumber charges when he has to turn off a tap late at night...
