Council weedkilling

I've always wondered how they manage this................... just seen the operator charging along the pavement, then the road on his little "truck" with a big tank on the back.............. steering with one hand, spraying with the other.   The spray seems to go evereywhere yet it seems reasonably successful.  Why he doesn't kill off the verges, edges of peoples front gardens is a mystery.  Any idea what they us?  round-up I'd guess?

  • roud hear they use a garden tractor but the same method i do not know what they use but this year thay have not don any and  some of the weed at the road side are 2ft high 

  • I've seen them around very late this year on his quad , they don't spray the weeds on the pavement if its next to someones else lawn or potentially killing off something else. In other words I have to spray it myself .

  • Never been impressed with 'Council Weedkilling'.  Round here they like to spray round trees, rain wind or shine, to the extent that for the summer a couple of years' back, each tree, lamp post, road sign etc  had an eliptical 'dead zone' extending 1ft one side to 4ft the other,
