Herbicide Questions

I've been doing some thinking(scary I know), I have an invasive species, Japanese Knotweed, and I have read about which herbicides to use to kill the roots. I need to use 2-4-D with a surfactant and apply it once I cut it once with the brush hog and allow it regrow a little. My question is would I need a license to do this? I want to start and treat a few acres, maybe 5. Then work my way into the woods and remove as much of this awful stuff as I can. I don't think I would need one to buy it as I would be buying the stuff at TSC but I don't want to go there and look like a fool either. I also would like any input from others who have tried and successfully killed the stuff. Thanks
 
The good news is that 2,4D is not restricted. The bad news is, it won't work on knotweed.

Daughter has a bunch of it- she went to a class, and they said cut the stalks and inject something down the hollow stalk- I think Roundup, but I'm not sure.
 
I don't think TSC sells anything at all that is reserticted?

In general if the label says 'caution' you should be able to buy it.

If the label says 'danger' then it is restricted.

There may be the oddball but I believe that is how it works.

TSC does sell restricted products but you have to know ahead of time or you will find out at the cash register where you have to produce your applicators license on restricted products.

In Texas you can buy several products in the quart but the 2.5 gallon is restricted.....political quaff. Just buy 10 quarts to get your 2.5 gal....yes it costs more that way but you get it.

On restrictions here, 10 acres is a breaking point and whether or not you apply for yourself is also part of it. 5 acres of your property of 24D in quart containers is okfine.
