Casoron 4G Herbicide is a herbicide only and will have no affect on insects.
Casoron 4G Herbicide does not kill anything actively growing as it is a pre-emergent only. It does not list that it will prevent any type of ivy as it states ivy as tolerable on the label so safe to use over.
Casoron 4G Herbicide is not labeled for use around ajuga or other groundcovers, so we would not recommend this application. We recommend taking a look at Snapshot for a pre-emergent to use around established ornamentals and groundcovers. This product is labeled for use around ajuga species. We suggest testing a small area if your plants are not listed on this label as known to be tolerant.
Casoron 4G Herbicide is a pre-emergent only, so it will not kill any existing plants such as poison oak. The product label indicates that Casoron 4G may injure conifers if applied in a way that contacts the foliage. We recommend that you wear protective clothing, cut the vines, and then treat the fresh cuts with a brush killer such as Fertilome Brush Killer and Stump Killer or RoundUp QuikPro for best results and to reduce risk to the desirable trees.
Casoron 4G Herbicide is not labeled to be used around corn at all and will not kill anything already growing as it is a pre-emergent only used to prevent weeds from emerging.
Casoron 4G Herbicide is pet safe if used as directed. Pets should be kept out of the area while the product is being applied and watered in, but can return once dry.
Casoron 4G Herbicide should not be applied near trees that are less than 6 months and it should not be applied where granules can stick to foliage or accumulate at the soil line around the base of the tree per the product label.
Casoron 4G Herbicide is a pre-emergent herbicide and does not work as a post-emergent to eradicate existing weeds. It is not labeled to treat for Kapok bush or Spinifex. You could cut the woody plants and use Fertilome Brush Killer and Stump Killer to make a direct application to the fresh cut and vines/foliage.
Casoron 4G Herbicide is not restricted in any states except Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. A license is not necessary in other states as long as you are applying to your own home or property.
We apologize but are not familiar with that spreader as we do not carry it so do not know the settings to use. The rate at which you apply Casoron 4G will be dependent on the weeds you are targeting. You will need to look over the Casoron Product Label to find the rates specific to your needs which can range between 100-250 lbs of Casoron per acre.
Since Casoron 4G Herbicide is not labeled to be used around palms, we would not recommend this application. Please let us know what weeds you are targeting so that we can make an alternative product recommendation for you.
According to the manufacturer, Casoron 4G Herbicide is not corrosive to metals. This product should only be applied in the labeled places and must be watered in immediately after application to avoid the active ingredient becoming volatile. Please be sure to thoroughly read the product label, as this product does contain very specific safety instructions.
According to the manufacturer, Casoron 4G Herbicide should NOT be applied over snow. There is a concern with not knowing how soon the snow will melt and with the product potentially getting into water from runoff and moving into undesirable areas (i.e. turf).
Casoron 4G Herbicide is not labeled to be applied around Leyland Cypress so we cannot recommend doing so. Snapshot TG would be a better option for pre-emergent weed control around them.
Casoron 4G Herbicide is a pre-emergent only and will not kill anything actively growing. Yucca is very tough! First you want to cut the plant down as much as possible. Then you can apply a stump remover like Fertilome Brush and Stump killer. It will take 1-6 weeks to kill the root system. You will still have to do your part by removing the stump. Fertilome Brush and Stump Killer will kill the root system and make the stump stop sprouting but it does not make the stump disappear. The exact wording on the product label is "To kill Stumps and prevent sprouting, apply the undiluted product with a paint brush or backpack sprayer to completely cover the freshly cut surface. Do not reuse paint brush. Wrap in several layers of newspaper and discard in trash."
You will need to wait 6 months before planting any sod after applying Casoron 4G Herbicide
Per the manufacturer label, Casoron 4G should not be used near any type of conifer trees.
While it would not be an issue to apply it when temperatures are in the 60s, Casoron 4G Herbicide is a pre-emergent herbicide, so usually summer is not an appropriate time to use this product. This is generally used in spring an fall to prevent listed weeds from germinating. If you would like to tell us more about your application needs, then we may be able to recommend a better product for you.
Casoron 4G Herbicide is not labeled for use around bulbs or on turfgrasses. You can look at Snapshot for a pre-emergent herbicide that can be used at certain times around bulb plantings. Be sure to review the full product label for rates and timing around bulbs.
We recommend that you contact your local cooperative extension office to determine the correct timing of the application as this will vary greatly from region to region. Typically pre-emergents such as Casoron 4G Herbicide need to be down before soil temperatures reach 55 degrees
