2,4-D is a contact hormonal plant herbicide, and has NOT been banned. Use caution, however, when spraying it around other susceptible plants. Also, it will NOT sterilize your soil, when applied, as directed. Perhaps you are thinking about 2,4,5-T, which HAS been taken off the market.

Thanks, dedux for correcting mudhog who stated that 2,4-D would sterlize the ground, and the last time I checked it was not a restricted use chemical. This means you don't have to have a lic. to purchase it. How ever with some of the knowledge I see flying around here it might be wise if someone was required to have some sort of learning about pesticides and there use!
2,4-D is one of the components in Trimec along with 2-(2-methyl-4- chlorophnooxy) and Dicamba. Also you can find Trimec plus which has MSMA added ( don't try to mix these two your self as you will get a strange jello like substance.) These products offer a better and broader spectrum of weed control than 2,4-D alone.
Sorry for the rant, but it appears we have a few topwaters here as far as chemical knowledge goes.
