    Q
    Can Crossbow Herbicide be used on land within the 100' radius of our domestic well?
    We have grasses & weeds we want to kill that in the yard that is inside the 100' radius of our domestic water well. Will Crossbow penetrate down to the water table? Our well is about 100' deep, but, we don't know if there is other points of entry higher up.
    A

    According to the label, Crossbow Herbicide should not be used in areas where the water table is shallow and the soil is permeable because it will contaminate the water. We generally recommend that you use any herbicides at least 10-15 feet away from the well.

    Crossbow Herbicide could affect desirable woody and viney plants that are sprayed with it. You should avoid spraying desirable vines and trees. We suggest spot treating the target plants and spraying when conditions are calm.
