Can I use Sahara DG Herbicide under the canopy of my 100-year-old oaks?

I have some beautiful 100yr old+ oaks that I don't want harmed, but everything under the canopies is a mess. I am looking for a bare ground killer I can use under and around them that won't harm my tress. This doesn't look like the right product from the Q&A. What do you recommend to use that will have the same affects of this product and not kill my oaks?

Answer:

All bare ground/vegetation management products like Sahara DG, are recommended to be applied outside the dripline of desirable trees and plants to prevent their feeding roots from absorbing the product.  Inside the dripline is where these roots are closest to the soil and could absorb any such product so we would not recommend using any in the area you have described.  The best thing we could recommend is using a glyphosate based product like GlyPhosel Pro to spot treat the weeds you want to kill around the tree and then use a pre-emergent such as Surflan Pro or other that is listed for the weeds you need to control.
