There are two major categories of herbicides to treat growing weeds--selective and non-selective. Selective herbicides only kill selected weeds such as broad leafed plants like dandelion, an example being the well-known herbicide 2,4-D. The non-selective herbicides kill all weeds. Commercially known non-selective herbicides include glyphosate (such as ROUNDUP.RTM.) and paraquat. Paraquat is a known hazardous material. Roundup often has a higher than desired kill time. Non-hazardous non-selective herbicides exhibiting decreased kill time are desired.
It is therefore a principal object of this invention to provide non-hazardous non-selective herbicides having low kill time for use on unwanted vegetation.
Other aspects and advantages of this invention will be apparent to those of skill in the art in view of the following disclosure and appended claims.
