Use Directions

Weeds Controlled or Suppressed:

Annual bluegrass (Poa annua) , Chickweed (Common and Mouseear), Crabgrass (suppression only), Cransbill, Cudweed, Dichondra, Florida Betony, Henbit, Knotweed, Lespedeza, Moneywort, Mustards, Narrow­ leaf Vetch, Parsley-Piert, Pennywort (Dollarweed), Sandspur, Smutgrass, Spurge, Spurweed, Swinecrest, Woodsorrel and various Annual clovers.

Established St. Augustinegrass and Centipedegrass:

This product may be applied during both dormant and growing seasons. Best results are usually obtained when applied in early Spring or dormant periods when weeds are small or have not emerged. Do not apply more than two treatments per year.

This product controls Annual bluegrass, Florida Betony, Spurweed and many other problem weeds in St. Augustinegrass and Centipedegrass turfs.

This product will control both emerged weeds and weeds from seeds. Rain or water within 2 or 3 days of application may decrease the effectiveness on emerged weeds. However, for the control of weeds from seeds, rainfall or watering is necessary within 7 to 10 days after treatment.

Spurweed:

Control of Spurweed can best be obtained by applying when Spurweed has newly emerged (December and January.)

Florida Betony:

This weed emerges in the Fall. Apply this product in mid to late October followed by a second application in mid to late February.

Dichondra, Moneywort:

Apply this product in early April followed by a second application in July. Note: Applications for Florida Betony or Spurweed generally will give control or suppression of the other listed weeds. However, as a general rule, this product will give best control when applied to young tender weeds or just prior to weed emergence.

Environmental Hazards

Atrazine can travel (seep or leach) through soil and can enter groundwater which may be used as drinking water. Atrazine has been found in groundwater. Users are advised not to apply Atrazine to Sand and Loamy sand soils where the water table (groundwater) is close to the surface and where these soils are very permeable, i.e., well-drained. Your local agricultural agencies can provide further information on the type of soil in your area and the location of groundwater.

This pesticide is toxic to aquatic invertebrates. Do not apply directly to water or to areas where surface water is present or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Do not apply when weather conditions favor drift from treated areas. Runoff and drift from treated areas may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in neighboring areas. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwaters or rinsate.
