    Q
    Can Casoron 4G Herbicide be used on asparagus?
    A

    No, Casoron 4G Herbicide cannot be used on asparagus.  It should not be applied directly to any edible vegetation not listed on the product label. Monterey Vegetable and Ornamental Weeder can be used around established asparagus after ferns are removed but before spear emergence.

    Q
    Can I use Casoron 4G Herbicide in the lawn to prevent Red Oak Acorns from germinating?
    I want to treat my lawn with a pre emergent that will have an affect on the overwhelming number of acorn tree sprouts that fall from my Red Oak. I have had some success using 2,4-D herbicide Weed B Gone products but looking for long term control to where I apply once or twice a year.
    A

    Casoron 4G Herbicide is not labeled for use in lawns and could possibly injure the turfgrass if applied. We are not aware of a pre-emergent herbcide that would prevent acorns from germinating due to oak trees also grow sprouts from the roots. Our recommendation for control would be to cut them off as close to the tree as possiblle at all and there is not a product we are aware of that can be applied to prevent them. 

    You can contact an local arborist or the Master Gardener with the Cooperative Extension Office for recommendations on any control methods they have found successful for your treatment.

    Q
    Will Casoran stop neighbors blackberries from spreading under a fence into my yard?
    My neighbor planed a variety of different berry bushes next to our common fence. These spread by sending out runners. Will spreading Casoron on my side of the fence stop the runners?
    A

    Casoron 4G Herbicide is used to control weeds around blackberries and other similar species plants so it would not do anything to stop the neighbors blackberries from coming over onto your side of the fence. There aren't any herbicides that could prevent that from growing except those that would kill your neighbors plant.

    Q
    What herbicide can I use to treat where tumbleweeds have taken over the back section of my lawn?
    Last year they were everywhere out back. They're all dead and brown now. I don't want a repeat of last year. What can I do to prevent, and treat, if I am attacked again this year?
    A

    A great option for tumbleweed pre-emergent control would be Casoron 4G Herbicide. Apply CASORON 4G either in early spring before seeds of annual weeds germinate or after cultivation has removed the growing weeds. Distribute granules uniformly over the soil surface. If treatment is followed by application of 1/2 to 1 inch of water by overhead irrigation, the lower rates are recommended. Shallow incorporation immediately after application is recommended in southern areas. In other areas, shallow incorporation or sprinkler irrigation is suggested when applications are made during periods of high temperature. This product can be applied in late fall to prevent weeds as well.

    Q
    Is there a pre-emergent for yellow and/or purple nutsedge labeled for use in California?
    A

    Casoron 4G is a great pre-emergent product that is labeled for nutsedge in non-crop areas only. It is also legal for use in California. For annual weeds, apply Casoron 4G either in early spring before seeds of annual weeds germinate or after cultivation has removed the growing weeds. Distribute granules uniformly over the soil surface. If treatment is followed by application of 1/2 to 1 inch of water by overhead irrigation, the lower rates are recommended. Shallow incorporation immediately after application is recommended in southern areas. In other areas, shallow incorporation or sprinkler irrigation is suggested when applications are made during periods of high temperature. For perennial weeds, Apply Casoron 4G as a soil surface treatment in late fall from November 15 to February 15. Old weed growth should not be removed before application. Do not make surface application to areas which have been cultivated during the fall or summer prior to application.

  • Asked by John from Sacramento

    Q
    Why can't Casoron be used in sewer lines?
    Most expensive foaming sewer treatments have this same ingredient. I want to combine this with a foaming agent and fill my sewer pipe.....inexpensively.
    A

    Products that could have the same active ingredient as the Casoron 4G Herbicide could have a different formulation of the ingredient or precentage but we do not carry any that are labeled for use in sewer pipes so cannot say for sure.  The Casoron label specifically states: Do not apply this product as a sewer treatment.  

    This product is a pre-emergent granule that has to be watered into the soil to create the barrier and be effective.

    Q
    Will Casoron 4G Herbicide kill Mediterranean Sage?
    I have a terrible Mediterranean Sage problem have tried commercial Roundup, Crossbow, and Pendulum and it keeps coming back. Any suggestions?
    A

    Casoron 4G is not labeled for Mediterranean sage at all.  We are not aware of any pre-emergents that are labeled for use on sage to prevent it from coming up or coming back.  Most applications are done with a post-emergent herbicide that is used throughout the growing season to control it as it comes up.  A product like Gordons Pasture Pro is labeled to control Mediterranean sage and can be used at up to 2 oz per gallon of water.  Gly Pho-Sel Pro Dry 75 also lists sage in general on the label and can be used per the label at up to 7 oz per gallon. Gly Pho Sel is one of the highest percentage glyphosate (Roundup-type) products on the market but it is a non-selective herbicide so you will want to be careful with application if desirable vegetation is nearby.

    Q
    For how long is soil contaminated for food plants after Casoron application?
    My neighbor applied Casoron in his yard last fall. Consequently, my raspberry bushes died for 4-6 feet from the fence line. Is it safe to eat raspberries this year from remaining plants? How soon can I replant in that area?
    A

    Casoron 4G Herbicide is actually labeled to be used around established raspberries so it would be fine around any that survived and bears fruit.  Since it can stay in the soil for at least 1 year, you would need to wait at least one year after application to replant or remove the treated soil and replace with new.

    Q
    I have been advised that Casoron 4G Herbicide will kill blanket weed in my koi pond without harming fish. Is this true?
    A

    No, Casaron 4G is NOT labeled to be used as an aquatic herbicide and will kill any aquatic life in your pond. Unfortunately we do not carry an algaecide to be used in small koi ponds. We recommend that you talk to a local koi pond supplier.

    Q
    If Casoron was put on our front lawn, is there any way to reverse the dying grass?
    If not what steps do we take to get the lawn back?
    A

    Since Casoron 4G Herbicide was applied to the whole lawn, it will likely stay there for at least a year so you will not be able to reseed until next year. If you have any additional questions, we would recommend contacting the manufacturer directly. Their phone number is 800-423-8569.

  • Asked by Kriss from Coos Bay, Oregon

    Q
    Can I use Casoron 4G on a new she shed with dirt floor?
    Will this kill everything that would try to grow? Like morning glory/bind weed? Outdoor carpet is marine quality. I want to spread Casoron, cover with black landscape fabric and cover with outdoor rug.
    A

    If this is an indoor shed with landscape fabric and a rug, then you would not be permitted to use an herbicide like Casoron inside the structure that is already built. Also, any landscape fabric would prevent sunlight from reaching seeds and allowing them to germinate. Casoron can be used under pool liners or before asphalt is poured, however it is not labeled to control morning glory or bindweed. A more suitable product for your needs may be Eraser Max, which has post-emergent and long-term pre-emergent herbicides. This could be used for agricultural structures, as well.
