New RoundUp

**"Daryl" p*@mindspring.com**

A landscaper friend in Maryland gave me a heads up. There's a new
formulation of RoundUp, in a container that looks quite a bit the same as
the old RoundUp.

The catch is that the new RoundUp contains both Glyphosate and Diquat.

Protective gear is different for the two products.

Our readers who are purchasing RoundUp thinking that it's the same product
that they were taught was relatively benign may be exposing themselves to
something unexpected. Yes, of course, "The Label is the Law", but how many
of them actually read it?
