19 people in the US died from lightning in 2022. Zero people have died due to Spectricide use in 2022. I'm assuming, you are ignorantly referring to the RoundUp litigation. This product is not that. Courts aren't science. Your statement is defying both fact and logic and is pretty terrible. No one deserves cancer and this nor any lawn product when used IAW the instructions is poison and you saying it is, is a disservice.
Same price at Home Depot for pickup or free shipping if that is your preference.

Quote from Unabomber :
Best practice is spray the entire virgin weed. I'd give it 3 days prior to mowing or raining, but Mother Nature and your freetime often make that not a possibility.

What if the weed is a slut?

I used to use this other active ingredient (Glyphosate) product for $15-22/gallon over the years...

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ARKS3XO/

worked great as weeds grow really fast here in FL

Any deals on other Glyphosate based non-brand name concentrates?

I second this.
I used this product till pre covid and results were good killing all the weeds on pavers.
Unfortunately, the price in covid skyrocketed and now can't afford it anymore.
Just an FYI, got the last one pre covid on sale for $ 21.99.

Quote from NinjaGrunt :
I sure hope you don't shop at the grocery store. If you do, you're contributing to more poison in the environment.

Furthermore, being on your technology device to type your diatribe is contributing more poison to the environment.

And please don't leave your house except on foot, because that would be contributing to more poison in the environment.

That story about a lawn professional's usage of glyphosate (main ingredient in RoundUp), his dog dying, him thinking it was because of exposure to glyphosate, but yet he continues to expose himself to the same chemical he thinks killed his dog is actually amazing. Man, this stuff is poison! It killed my dog! But I'll still be around that poison whenever a customer asks for it.

I'm a doctor specializing in cancer and have seen zero evidence that glyphosate causes cancer. Would I want the potential occupational risk of glyphosate exposure daily? Absolutely not.

I'm also an attorney specializing in personal harm/injury caused by corporate neglect. And the majority of cases we try for proving glyphosate causes cancer, we lose unless it goes to a jury. And when we select the jury, guess what? We target folks like you!

Whereas I respect and highly value health & safety education and awareness, I'm left wondering if you now understand how you sound with your approach?

Poison/toxicity is based on the level of exposure/dosage. Drink too much water (pure h2o), and you will die.

PS I'm not a doctor, nor am I an attorney.

PPS the active ingredient in the OP product is not glyphosate (RoundUp), it's diquat dibromide.

Both herbicides are non-selective, meaning they will kill whatever plant material that they are applied to. The main difference is the way in which they kill the plants. Glyphosate is a systemic herbicide and diquat dibromide is a contact herbicide. This means that while diquat dibromide only kills plant tissue that it comes into direct contact with, glyphosate will move through the plant from point of contact down to the roots. In this regard, many believe glyphosate > diquat dibromide.
Blah blah blah...artificial is artificial

Same price everywhere. Home Depot lowes both have it for $6. Regular price is $8 as opposed to Amazon $14. Also, Amazon doesn't ship to all major cities for this product. So that reason thumbs down.

Quote from fawzi :
why should i use this instead of pulling the weed?

Very difficult to pull weeds if you have a large yard and a lawn that's not under good control. And if you don't break out the shovel for each individual weed and get the root, they will come right back, and you'll be out there pulling an acre of weeds again a couple weeks later.

I finally caved and decided to give this a try, but I'm disappointed. It killed a few things but not my worst weeds. Definitely killed the grass in the one spot I tried to spot spray in the lawn. Vines, in particular posion ivy and Virginia creeper, are my biggest problems and this doesn't help with those. Going to use this bottle up then never buy it again. Trying glyphosate for the vines next.

You will have difficulties even with glyphosate on those. You need a more concentrated form or something like this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AZSOEFO

This is exactly where I'm at, too.

I looked at my Amazon history, and I've bought the Compare-N-Save gallon concentrate 7 times over the years. It's ranged from 17-22 bucks, roughly.

Like you I recently went to pick up another gallon or two and was absolutely floored at the price difference. I initially thought maybe it was just an Amazon thing, but saw the same crazy prices at Tractor Supply.

I wasn't sure if it was a supply problem, or maybe somehow linked to all the current lawsuits going on with RoundUp.

Thanks for that. If the glyphosate doesn't work out, I know what to try next!

"Again, it is recommend to use at least a 41% glyphosate solution for treatment — approximately 6 to 12 oz of a 41% glyphosate solution to 1 gallon of water. Foliage, once fully expanded, should be sprayed until runoff occurs. If poison ivy is growing on trees, one should not be concerned if treatment is occurring on trees with mature, course brown bark of large trees, as no injury should occur to the tree. If inspection of the bark reveals green tissue, as is commonly found on deciduous trees that have been planted for one to two years, do not spray glyphosate on the bark of the tree."
