HERBICIDAL DELIVERY COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING PLANT POPULATIONS IN AQUATIC AND WETLAND ENVIRONMENTS

摘要

Superabsorbent solid organic polymers which absorb over 100 times their weight in water are used in aquatic and wetland environment plant (weed) population control compositions. Methods for using the solid or flowable, superabsorbent polymer herbicidal delivery agents for the control of aquatic and wetland plant populations, or for the simultaneous or concurrent control of both aquatic plant and aquatic insect (particularly mosquitoes) populations, in an area needing aquatic and wetland environment plant (weed) control treatment, are described.
