    Q
    How long should I wait after using Dismiss to overseed?
    Our lawn has developed patches of what looks like kyllinga grass and some other sedge and crabgrass. I would like to spot spray this week to kill the weeds. Every fall, I aerate and overseed the lawn. 30 days?
    A

    Per the Dismiss Turf product label: Reseeding, overseeding or sprigging of treated areas within one (1) month after application of this product could inhibit the establishment of desirable turfgrasses. Overseeding of bermudagrass with perennial ryegrass at two (2) to four (4) weeks after an application can be done if slight injury to perennial ryegrass can be tolerated.

    Q
    Does Dismiss Turf Herbicide harm Dymondia?
    Have a spurge infestation in Dymondia lawn. Can I treat with Dymondia to kill spurge?
    A
    Dismiss Turf Herbicide is not labeled for ornamental plants so we would not recommend using it in your Dymondia lawn.Unfortunately, we do not have a selective herbicide that would kill weeds such as clover and oxalis without also injuring the dymondia. You would need to hand pull or spot treat carefully using a non-selective herbicide such as Hi-Yield Killzall Quik RTU

    Q
    Will Dismiss Turf damage shrubs or trees?

    When used as directed, Dismiss Turf will not harm established shrubs or trees if they are accidentally sprayed during application. Since this is a broadleaf weed herbicide, you should not apply Dismiss directly to ornamentals or ornamental beds.

    Q
    Is Dismiss Turf Herbicide safe to use it on Liriopes?
    Is this stuff safe to spray on Liriope without killing them?
    A

    The product label for Dismiss Turf Herbicide does not list liriope, monkey grass, or mondo grass as tolerant to Dismiss applications. Because the label specifically indicates that applications should not be made to ornamentals, we believe that the Dismiss could harm the liriope. We do sell many herbicides that are labeled for weeds around ornamentals or to kill the liriope, but we would need more information about your situation to give an educated recommendation. You may discuss your situation with our Customer Service staff by calling 866-581-7378 M-F 9a-5p EST.

    Q
    Does Dismiss kill poa annua selectively?
    cool season grasses ... what is the proper mix ratio for a 2 gal. tank sprayer? Does freezing affect it (if stored in winter in unheated garage)?
    A
    The Dismiss Turf Herbicide is not labeled to kill poa annua but it is not listed as a grass that it is safe to be sprayed on. Tolerant cool seasons grasses are : Creeping Bentgrass, Kentucky Bluegrass, Rough Bluegrass, Fine & Tall Fescue, Perrenial Ryegrass. No product should be stored in an area where it can freeze or get too hot. Insecticides and herbicides need to be stored in a temperature stable environment out of direct sunlight to sustain the longest shelf life and strongest potency of the product. A product that is safe on several cool season grasses and will cover broad leaf weeds as well as grassy weeds and Poa Annua would be the Echelon 4SC. Echelon 4SC is a selective/post emergent product like the Dismiss but better suited to your needs. You can review the product label for dilution rates for your type of yard. Please let us know if you have any other questions.
