Gretchen,
I was horrified last year when I discovered that they came up our road and then up my driveway and right into my horse field! Thank goodness the horses were not in the pasture at the time. I kept them out for over two months and many rain storms before I would let them back in.
As far as it being harmless, check out some data the Rodale collected on the spray at http://www.rodale.com/roundup-weed-killer-more-toxic-originally-believed
.. Doesn’t seem so harmless to me¦.
I love our local utility guys because lord knows they bail all of us out of trouble when storms and foul weather hit. They are the bomb as far as I am concerned. But, I have a chain across my driveway now. Hopefully it keeps the sprayers out this time.
Jeannette
