Can I use Prodiamine 65 WDG for spot treatments?

Can I use Prodiamine 65 WDG for spot treatments as well? I use as a pre-emergent but have a number of listed weeds come up. I would rather spot treat than to the entire lawn as a Post-emergent.

Answer:

Prodiamine 65 WDG is an effective pre-emergent herbicide for pre-emergent grass and broadleaf weed control. This product will not act as a post-emergent. Timing is very important when applying pre emergent products are you want to be sure to apply before the weeds germinate. For the best timing on when to apply a pre-emergent in your specific region, we would recommend contacting your Master Gardener at your local cooperative extension office.

You may spot treat actively growing weeds with a post-emergent product. In order to make a proper recommendation, we would need some more information.

1. Which specific weeds are you targeting?
2. What type of grass do you have?
3. How much area will you be treating?
