25. Glyphosate!

Mon Oct 6, 2014, 08:02 PM

Oct 2014

While Monsanto created this chemical, they no longer hold the sole patents. Every chemical company that makes weed killers for lawn, gardens, and farms produces this shit now.

What was just Monsanto 10 years ago and really expensive is now dirt cheap.

Glyphosate, known as roundup is readily available. You can avoid Monsanto all you want and without knowing better be spraying the exact same chemical.
