Lawn people just sprayed my kids' play area with Roundup - how to remedy?

[Anonymous]

I didn't realize what they were doing until it was too late. There is a large mulched area with swing set, etc. and they weeded and then sprayed, will be mulching tomorrow. How do I remedy this? Obviously I should have asked more questions first, but it's too late now. I'm really kind of freaked out. I guess there is no way to remove Roundup...

Have you done any research into round up? Like legitimate research from verified and qualified sources? I'm not a huge proponent of using this stuff, but you seem to be overreacting.

Post in the general parenting forum for more responses. I would hose the area down daily and keep the kids off of it for a week. The reality is that this likely happens at many parks as well.

You hired them to do this and didn't ask them not to use Roundup? You're the idiot.
