    Can i mix Drive XLR8 with Surge Broadleaf Herbicide for turf in my 20 gal tank?? Thank U
    A

    We would not recommend mixing Surge Broadleaf Herbicide and Drive XLR8 Herbicide in the same tank. Per the label of Surge Herbicide, this product should not be mixed with a surfactant because it will damage your turf grass. Drive XLR8 requires one.

    Does Drive XLR8 Herbicide Crabgrass Killer kill japanese stilt grass and/or moss?
    Does Drive XLR8 kill japanese stilt grass and/or moss? I want to kill stiltgrass but not the moss,

    Unfortunately, Drive XLR8 Herbicide Crabgrass Killer is not labeled to kill Japanese stiltgrass. We would recommend a product like Bonide Over the Top II Grass Killer instead. This would not damage the non-grass ornamental plants you have while taking care of the stiltgrass when use based on the product label.
