Ace Hardware used to carry it. I used it in gravel driveways until I saw what it did. Sure did kill that crap dead though.
Here you go. I found a link to it. It was made by "Ortho".

The primary ingredient in the original Triox product by Ortho was Arsenic Trioxide, a soil sterilant, which IIRC has been banned. And, yes, it was super nasty stuff. It would kill everything.....grass, weeds, woody plants, brush, dogs, horses......!
I was in the chemical business and sold a comparable product.
