Maybe Steve can correct me if I'm wrong; I've been a pesticide sprayer at commercial nursery's in the past and it is my understanding that Roundup and other chemicals are supposed to break down over time while sitting on the soil.
The problem is that there's a lot of rain and not much soil here; poisons quickly flow down through our porous rock contaminating our water supply and eventually our reef system.
The County should be mowing roadsides, farmers and landscapers should look for alternatives.
