Sculpin® G is a formulation technology breakthrough for selective systemic control of broadleaf aquatic weeds. Unique in the aquatic plant management industry, Sculpin G is a dimethylamine salt formulation of 2,4-d, transported on a patented granule technology. The biodegradable granule conveyance allows for targeted herbicide delivery to the submersed plant zone. Sculpin G provides an effective and economical solution for selective and systemic control of broadleaf aquatic weeds.

Features & Benefits

Product Highlights

An Effective, Economical Solution for Broadleaf Aquatic Weeds:

  • Targeted herbicide delivery
  • Only 2,4-d amine granule in aquatics
  • Economical solution
  • Formulated on biodegradable granules
  • Supported by FasTEST* Water Analysis technology

Sculpin G offers important benefits over 2,4-d ester (e.g. Navigate®), including:

  • Different formulation technology (carrier)
  • Different 2,4-d formulation (amine)
  • Different release rate
  • Less influenced by water pH for optimal herbicide activity
  • Lower fish toxicity compared to 2,4-d ester
  • No swimming restriction

Use Sculpin G herbicide for control of certain aquatic weeds in: ponds; lakes; reservoirs; marshes; bayous drainage ditches; non-irrigation canals; and rivers and streams that are quiescent or slow-flowing. This product is designed to selectively control the weeds listed on this label. While certain other weeds may be suppressed, control may be incomplete. Reduced control may occur in lakes or ponds where water replacement comes from bottom springs.

Sculpin G is formulated on biodegradable granules that, when applied to water bodies, immediately deliver the herbicide down to the critical areas for controlling target weeds.

When applying Sculpin G follow all applicable use directions, precautions and limitations. All Sculpin G concentrations referred to in this label are based on acid equivalence (a.e.).

When treating moving bodies of water, applications must be made while traveling upstream to prevent concentration of herbicide downstream from the application.

Precautionary Statements

HAZARDS TO HUMANS AND DOMESTIC ANIMALS

Causes substantial, but temporary eye injury. Harmful if swallowed. Avoid contact with skin or clothing. Do not get in eyes or on clothing. Wear protective eyewear (goggles, face shield, or safety glasses). Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating, drinking, chewing gum, or using tobacco. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Wear long-sleeved shirt and long pants, socks, shoes, and gloves.

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE)

All loaders, applicators, and other handlers must wear:

  • Long-sleeve shirt and long pants
  • Shoes and socks
  • Chemical-resistant gloves
  • Protective eyewear.

Follow manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning/maintaining PPE. If no such instructions for washables exist, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry.

ENGINEERING CONTROLS

Pilots must use an enclosed cockpit that meets the requirements listed in the WPS for agricultural pesticides [40 CFR 170.240(d)(6)].

USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS0

Users should:

  • Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing. If pesticide gets on skin, wash immediately with soap and water.
  • Remove PPE immediately after handling this product. Wash the outside of gloves before removing. As soon as possible, wash thoroughly and change into clean clothing.

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS

Fish breathe dissolved oxygen in the water and decaying weeds also use oxygen. When treating continuous, dense weed masses, it may be appropriate to treat only part of the infestation at a time. For example, in quiescent waters, apply the product to areas separated by untreated sections that can be treated after vegetation in treated areas has disintegrated. During the growing season, weeds decompose in a 2 to 4 week period following treatment. Begin treatment along the shore and proceed outwards in bands to allow fish to move into untreated areas. Waters having limited and less dense weed infestations may not require partial treatments.
