I don't know how safe there are, but not only are there glyphosate-free weed killers on the market, there are even Roundup-branded glyphosate-free weed killers available.
They seem to use acetic acid (Roundup Speed Ultra) and nonanoic acid (Roundup NL).
Are they safe? Are they effective? Hell if I know. I'm going to be wearing gloves and washing my hands after using, no matter how safe Monsanto says it is.
