Walk into any garden center and you’ll find so many rows of herbicides and insecticides, it can be extremely overwhelming for the home gardener! That’s because some herbicides claim to kill this but not that. Other insecticides work here but not there. Skip the frustration and stock up on some of our favorite products instead. Our herbicides and insecticides are proven to work, period. Here are three that we think every gardener should have in stock at all times.

RM43

No matter which weed you have, RM43 can likely get rid of them. RM43 doesn’t just kill one type of weed, it kills hundreds, offering total vegetation control on bare ground or for brush and vine spot control. RM43 kills over 150 weeds, including kudzu, poison ivy and poison oak. Plus, it not only kills existing weeds, but prevents future growth. RM43 is a combination of two herbicides and surfactant. Use it on: non-crop areas, roadsides, curbs, sidewalks, driveways, brick walks, gravel paths and vacant lots to stem the growth of invasive plants. To really prevent weed growth, apply this to areas before laying surface materials. RM43 is rainfast in two hours and there are no entry restrictions to sprayed areas for pets or people after the spray has dried.
