look at the 'why do I do this every day' graffiti on the fence on the M40 as you turn onto the M25 exit, that always catches my eye as it must do so many people, but such graffiti hasn't then proliferated on the following bridges or other motorway furniture as it could have done, people are basically lazy most of the time and hopefully won't be too inspired.

Plus it depends what kind of grassland it's done on, chances are it might have already been improved and fertilized and ruined and creating bare patches in such grassland might allow some more ineteresting species in! unless it's weed killer .....
Technically its still agravated trespass though (unless you have the landowners consent of course), we had some prat write his website in the side of our dam in fertiliser a couple of years ago. Thats worse than weedkiller cos it lasts for ages. Mind you I had the last laugh cos i used it as an excuse to strip the top soil and plant a wildflower meadow.
