No way would I ever toxify my yard, I found that after a good rain it's
pretty easy to pull out the weeds roots and all.

A number of years ago garlic mustard took over and after a good rain,
those things came out with little effort and now that I've cleared the
yard , no more than three or four return each year.

Yep. A number of years ago I used some of the Weed-B-Gon on my yard to
get rid of a dandelion infestation. While it worked well, I noticed
that the local squirrels were acting a bit strange for a few weeks
afterwards. In the following years, I noticed a similar behavior
pattern near other neighbors who used the products.

Now I just go out and pull the weeds every once in awhile. You can pick
a lot of weeds in a half an hour (literally hundreds of them), and it's
more satisfying to get the chance to kill them up close and personal
anyway. Like any "dirty job", I just put on some working clothes and
gloves and have at it.
