How do you know these ditches were not sprayed. Just curious. Often times they do around here to prevent sediment build up from heavy plant growth...spraying is cheaper than a backhoe and hauling.
I have photos of the spraying events...all county controlled. We place signs in areas we do not want sprayed.
Its also a reason why I would caution beekeepers from placing hives under power lines as they are now being more often than not sprayed to kill brush once heavy tree growth has been cut back.
