Caller reports that her neighbour hand sprayed her property line with a pesticide that has killed her cedars and some grass and other plants. He had to reach through their fence, and he took it down in places, to get to her plants. He sprayed her property 4 years ago and some of the area has not grown anything since. He sprayed her chicken coop and 3 chickens have died. She wants to know what he sprayed and whether she can get the vegetables from her garden or eat the chickens. Sprayed 2 or 3 weeks ago. There were 2 patches of lawn that have died this time as well as some cedars and ornamental sumac. He sprayed up about 8 feet and sprayed over the cedars to get the sumac. The walls of the cedars are dying because of the spray. Her husband saw the farmer spraying about 3 weeks ago. Caller is worried about what he sprayed before because nothing has grown since. He might be using something stronger than glyphosate.
