MSMA (monosodium methyl arsenate) is a herbicide primarily used for controlling weeds, particularly in certain turf and ornamental applications. However, its use in hay pastures is generally not recommended due to the potential for residual toxicity and the impact on livestock if consumed. Always check local regulations and consult with an agricultural extension officer or a professional before applying any herbicides in hay pastures.
MSMA - short for monosodium acid methanearsonate MSMA is the active ingredient in a widely used herbicide. Common uses are control of broadleaf weeds, yellow nutsedge, burrs, and dallis grass in turfgrass situations.
Of course not.

Msma is pet safe, however, after you apply it to the desired area, you do want to keep pets and people off for a few hours. After it is dry, you can resume your normal activities.
Target herbicides are the way to kill weeds in zoysia grass. The active ingredients benefin, bensulide, oxadiazon, prodiamine, and siduron control goose-grass while DSMA and MSMA treat post-emergent crab-grass. MCPP, triclopyr + clopyralid, or 2,4-D treat broadleaf weeds.
Yep, banned in the EU and US
Pre-emergent and post-emergent herbicides are the types of weed killers that kill sandburs (Cenchrus spp), bunch-type, low-branching annuals and perennials of open fields and meadows and of drought-weakened turf. Pre-emergent herbicides that control crabgrass include the common names benefin, DCPA, oryzalin, oxadiazon, or simazine. Post-emergent weed killers range from the organic arsenicals DSMA or MSMA in bermudagrass lawns to imazaquin in warm-season grasses and Saint Augustine grass.

Amaranth was banned in the US in the early 1970s due to concerns about its potential impact on agriculture and the environment.
The most effective herbicides available are systemic herbicides. These herbicides travel all the throughout the plant, including to its roots. They tend to take a slightly longer time than other herbicides but are much more effective.
