Depending on the vinegar/soap it may contain alcohol which is known carcinogen where glyphosates are a suspected carcinogen. On toxicity, acetic acid in vinegar is pretty high and associated with things like osteoporosis which has been seen in people who consume apple cider vinegar on a daily basis. Along the same lines LD50 of glyphosates is 10,000mg/kg where acetic acid in vinegar is fatal at 3000mg/kg.
- omginternets 9y agoLD50 and carcinogenesis have very little to do with each other.
- adrr 9y agoBoth are related to mortality.
- omginternets 9y agoYes, and the topic of discussion is most assuredly not: which will make you drop dead while using it. Rather, it's "which will give you cancer through long-term exposure".
- dao- 9y agoI guess you could damage your skin via direct contact if you're not careful and use them a lot, but the alcohol and acetic acid will dissolve in the ground in reasonable time. Using such herbicides should be way less harmful than drinking a glass of wine or cider every now and then, and safer than glyphosate too.
