Question
Will Caseron kill my Aspen trees?  I used it sparingly around the outside edges of the circle of the tree, so that the grass wouldn't grow in the circle.

Answer
Maureen
I have never used 'Caseron'. Did you read the lable? Some weed killers will go to the root system. I would suggest to apply the Caseron outside of the drip line, that is out side of where the leaves are when looking up. You could use Round-up to kill the grass, it is a contact weed killer so it should not hurt the trees.
