Best Answer

The chemical that is used in weed killers depends upon the herbicide to be applied and the weed to be exterminated. A weed killer mixes both active and inactive ingredients, with the former representing the lethal chemical. Popular chemicals tend to be glyphosate among home gardeners and Dicamba, Triclopyr and 2,4-D among professional landscapers.
