    Pesticide is a pretty standard generic word (at least in British English) covering insecticides, herbicides, fungicides.

      In murican, at least in my area, pesticide is used exclusively to refer to something that kills animals like an insectiside or vermin poison. We would just use herbicide when talking about a weed killer.
