Directions

Directions for use:

It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.

When to apply: Apply anytime weeds are actively growing. Warm, sunny weather will accelerate systemic movement from leaves and stems down to the roots to give complete kill. Do not mow or cut off tops of weeds before spraying. Do not apply if rainfall is expected soon after application. Growth of treated grasses stops soon after application. They turn yellow and die within one to four weeks depending on the grass species and weather conditions. Cool weather slows activity.

How to use:

Hold sprayer close to weed (1 to 2 ft) with spray nozzle aimed at weed and away from face and just wet foliage. Make two applications 7 days apart for tough to control weedy grasses such as established bermudagrass, crabgrass, and quackgrass. Repeat if necessary. Spray when air is calm to avoid drift to non-labeled plants. If an unlisted plant is accidentally contacted, wash off immediately with water. Unless the ornamental plant is listed in the table under those plants which you can spray over the top, always direct the spray to the weeds to avoid possible injury to the foliage.

Ground covers, flowers, ornamentals, shrubs, and shade trees: To kill undesirable weedy grasses growing around the trunk or up through the foliage of the following plants, spray directly on the weeds, avoiding the desirable plant foliage as much as possible.
