    Q
    Can I use Battleship around grapes
    Wine grapes in central minnesota.
    A
    Battleship III Herbicide - 2.5 gallon should not be applied near grapes. Depending on what you are treating, you could use a Glyphosate product like Round Up to spot treat or Fertilome over the Top Grass Killer.

    Q
    Does Battleship III Herbicide work for ground ivy?
    I purchased Battleship III and have applied it to my lawn. it appears not to be effective on ground ivy.
    A

    Battleship III Selective Herbicide is labeled for ground ivy. You will use 1.5 fl. oz. per 1000 square feet. This will generally be mixed in a gallon of water. A surfactant should also be used when applying this product to ensure that it is coating the plants properly. A retreatment may need to be done depending on severe the problem is. This can be done after 21 days.

    Q
    Can Battleship III Herbicide & MSMA be tank mixed together?
    A

    Neither the Battleship III Herbicide or MSMA Target 6.6 product label mentions restrictions regarding tank mixing with other herbicides therefore, we recommend doing a Compatibility Test, aka “Jar Test” to see if the 2 herbicides are compatible when mixed with water. A “Jar Test” is where you are mixing small amounts of each herbicide to 16 oz of water in a glass jar and looking for physical signs of sludge, clumpling or separation 

    Please view our video on how to Tank Mix Lawn Care Products for a short tutorial on how to tank mix herbicides.

    Q
    Battleship III and pre-emergents
    Can Battleship III be mixed with a pre-emergent for application at the same time? What standard pre-emergent do you suggest?
    A
    While a pre and a post emergent herbicide can be applied at the same time, it usually is not done since the timing for a pre emergent to be effective, and the timing for an actively growing weed to be controlled, would be different times of the year based on soil temps needed. The fall is the main time you hear people using both, but you must be cognizant of your pre emergent to make sure you are not applying it too early so it doesn't break down before you need it to for weed prevention. There is not a standard pre emergent that is used as it depends on the grass type you would be spraying over and what your target weeds are, since not all pre emergents will work on all weed species. If you want to provide our team with the names of your target weeds, we would be happy to make a pre emergent product recommendation. You can mix the Battleship III Herbicidewith most pre emergents provided both are labeled to be used in the same areas.

    Q
    What product would work for dock weed that is in an ornamental flower bed?
    A

    Battleship III Herbicide is labeled for dock but not labeled for use on ornamental flowers. Broadleaf weeds in a flower & ornamental beds will be treated very differently and much more carefully than would be needed in a lawn. Any broadleaf weeds (like clover, violets, dandelion, etc) have to be hand pulled or directly spot treated with a non selective herbicide avoiding any contact with desirable plants. Since broadleaf weeds are so similar in nature to most plants found in bedding areas, you would not be able to spray over the top without harming both. Any grassy weeds can usually be controlled with an over the top broadcast spray in flower beds with no worry of harm coming to them, but you will always want to check the product label for your specific species to be sure it’s safe. We recommend using pre-emergents as that is the most effective way to stop weeds especially in flower bed areas where chemical options are limited.

    Q
    Is Battleship III Herbicide harmful to perennial peanut hay?
    Have a variety of grasses and cacti that I need to get rid of. My peanut hay is growing but needs weeds and grass killed.
    A

    We would not recommend using Battleship III Herbicide on perennial peanut or any other legumes since it has broadleaf herbicides that could kill this plant. This product also is not labeled for use in grazing or pasture areas, so it could not be used on hay. You can browse our Range and Pasture products here.

  • Asked by Dan from Bowling Green, Ohio
    12/13/2018
    Q
    For how long does Battleship III control broadleaf weeds after application?
    A

    Since Battleship III Herbicide is a post-emergent herbicide, it is only going to kill weeds that are emerged at the time of the application. Broadleaf weeds germinate at different times of the year so follow up or split applications may be required. Per the product label, do not apply more than 2 applications per year with a minimum retreatment interval of 21 days. You can apply 3-4 pints per acre (1.1 fl oz to 1.5 fl oz per 1,000 sq ft) per application.
