So you really don't want Agent Orange. But you know what those commercials don't say? They don't say "were you exposed to Agent Purple? Call now." They also don't mention Agents Blue, Green, White and Pink. All were herbicides used during Nam. So why did Agent Orange become the only one with the lawsuits and the compensation?
Because all the other agents are totally safe.
I personally recommend Agent Purple, if you can still get it, but Green and Pink are also known to greatly upset those peoples that are indigenous to the A Shau Valley.
ETA: I ain't kiddding. They don't call it Agent Purple anymore, but...

Hey, Tordon is purple or at least the stuff I get on Amazon. I learned of the stuff while staking out centerlines for transmission lines for clearing and setting clearing limits. KCPL's felling crew would come in behind me with power saws leaving the stumps sticking up about 2 feet high. They would pour an X across the top with this thick purple gelly looking stuff. So I asked what it was (tordon) he said it would eventually kill the root system and the stump would decay in a few years.
Nowadays they just use attachments to a Catapiller track how that saws the tree down and another grinds the stump down flush to the ground .
