I like nothing better than being let loose with Glyphosate although nowadays it’s under the watchful eye of my other half (I was a bit to enthusiastic in the past).
A retired chemist once told me how he used to use cyanide to kill wasps. I’m not advocating that we go back to those days.
As long as it does what it says on the tin then I will happily use modern pesticides and herbicides.
