Aldicarb is classified as a Restricted Use Pesticide (RUP) in the United states. RUPs may be purchased and used only by certified applicators. Because aldicarb is rated as highly toxic, products containing aldicarb bear the signal word DANGER-POISON on the label (ExtoxnetPip).

Bermuda grass is not tolerant of atrazine and it can possibly kill the grass. Certainly some state agricultural agencies recommend using atrazine to control weeds in Bermuda grass, but its use should probable be limited to times when the average temperatures are at or below 50 oF, i.e. when the Bermuda grass is dormant.See http://commodities.caes.uga.edu/turfgrass/georgiaturf/WeedMngt/weedcontrol/ATHCAL01.pdf
