Stingray® is a contact herbicide that provides fast-acting control of susceptible floating, emerged and submersed weed species. Stingray may be used alone or in combination with other aquatic herbicides to provide effective control of the following: water hyacinth, water lettuce, giant salvinia, common salvinia, duckweed, watermeal, flowering rush, creeping water primrose, milfoil species, coontail and other susceptible species. Stingray carries a “Caution” Signal Word with minimal water use restrictions (see label for restrictions). Stingray in combination with Sonar Genesis® and Nautique® Aquatic Herbicide produces fast-acting systemic control on both duckweed and watermeal. Visual control of plants occurs in 3 - 7 days followed by long-term system control from Sonar Genesis. Spray tank-mix should be applied as a broadcast application over the treatment area.

Features & Benefits

Product Highlights

STINGRAY Aquatic Herbicide is a liquid formulation which is emulsifiable in water. It is designed to be mixed with water and applied to aquatic areas for control of floating and emerged weeds. Weed control is more effective on immature, actively growing weeds than on mature, less actively growing weeds. This product is a contact herbicide with little or no residual activity at specified use rates.

This product is rapidly absorbed through the foliage of plants. The herbicide is rainfast within one hour after application. Within a few hours following application, the foliage of susceptible weeds may show signs of desiccation, and in subsequent weeks necrosis and death of the plant.

Extremes in environmental conditions (e.g. temperature and pH), may affect the activity of this product. Under warm conditions, herbicide symptoms may be accelerated.

Precaution: Use of dirty or muddy water when preparing spray mixtures to apply this product may result in reduced herbicidal activity.

Restrictions

  • Applications made to moving bodies of water must be made while traveling upstream to prevent concentration of this herbicide in water.
  • When making any bankside applications, do not overlap more than 1 foot into open water.
  • Do not spray in bodies of water where weeds do not exist.
  • Avoid applying under conditions of high wind or wave action.
  • The maximum application rate of 13.5 fluid Ounces per acre (0.2 lbs ai per acre) must not be exceeded in any single broadcast application that is being made over water.

Tank Mix Directions

This product may be tank mixed with other aquatic herbicides (e.g. 2,4-D, diquat, triclopyr, imazapyr and glyphosate) to control weeds not listed on this label. Refer to the companion herbicide label for use directions, precautions and restrictions on use. Stingray Aquatic Herbicide is believed to be compatible with most other aquatic herbicides. However, when preparing a new tank mix, always conduct a physical compatibility test by mixing proportional amounts of all spray ingredients in a test vessel (jar). Shake the mixture vigorously and allow it to stand for five to ten minutes. Rapid precipitation of the ingredients and failure to re-suspend when shaken indicates that the mixture is incompatible and must not be applied.

It is the pesticide user's responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.
