What would you say to someone who wants to know why the herbicide he used killed the grass in his lawn, but left the dandelions and thistles?

Respuesta :

I would say to the person that a selective herbicide was used to kill the grass in his lawn.  

What are herbicides?

Herbicides are toxic chemicals that are used to kill or inhibit the growth of unwanted plants such as weeds.

There are two types of herbicides such as:

  • Selective herbicides and
  • Non selective herbicides.

Selective herbicides as the name implies are those herbicides that selectively kill weeds without harming the lawn. They do not harm non-grassy weeds such as dandelions and thistles.

Therefore, I would say to the person that a selective herbicide was used to kill the grass in his lawn.
