"I have some and am a bit wary about using it. I have used Roundup but this
stuff lasts longer and kills everything"

After a quick look I think Noxall is safe.  It has a mammalian toxicity about like table salt.  It is decently safe to fish and birds.  I see nothing that would make me suspect bees would have any problem with it.  It does have a long half life in soil.  One source said 500 days.  Personally I hate using anything with a long half life in the environment.  But, that is my personal hang up I suppose.
