Fusilade II Turf and Ornamental herbicide is a selective post-emergent herbicide that controls a long list of perennial and annual grass weeds in turf and landscaped areas. Not only is Fusilade II fast and effective, but it can be applied as a spot treatment or an over the top application without damaging ornamental plants. It can also be used to remove bermuda grass from tall fescue and zoysia grass when used at reduced rates. Fusilade II can stand up to rain after only 1 hour of application.
It is recommended that a non-ionic surfactant be used when applying Fusilade II.

Fusilade II works fast, moving quickly into the shoots, roots, rhizomes, stolons and growing points of the treated plants.
Weed growth is soon arrested, and within just one week there will be loss of vigor, yellow and/or reddening, and eventual death of the treated grass weeds.
Usage chart for spot treatments:
1 gallon water + .75 oz. Fusilade + .5 oz surfactant
10 gallons water + 6.5 oz. Fusilade + 3 oz surfactant
25 gallons water + 16 oz. Fusilade + .5 pint surfactant
50 gallons water + 32 oz. Fusilade + 1 pint surfactant

I use Fusilade II to kill the bermuda and crab grass growing in a large bed in which I'm trying to get Periwinkle (vinca minor) to take over as the predominant ground cover. I mixed the Fusilade with a spreader/sticker/penetrant called Cadence made by KALO, Inc. I oversprayed the Periwinkle and grass with the mix and (you have to be patient) after about 5 to 7 days the grass was dead and gone and the Periwinkle was untouched.

Works great!!!
By Lisa on 08/31/2015
I mixed the Fusilade w/surfactant per the label instructions and applied it to my lawn 8 days ago with a garden sprayer. Already the Bermuda grass has yellowed and looks dead. I will reapply in 20 more days just to make sure and then reseed in 14 days. The fescue seems to have survived quite well.

A great Herbicide for grasses
By Harold on 06/06/2011

After early research on Fusilade in the 80s with UCCE in CA for crop use, I (aswell as my friends) now find it useful in my flower garden for selective control of annoying annual and perennial grass in Seattle's wonderful gardening climate. But it doesn't control annual bluegrass or fescues. It has some odor so wear plastic gloves. It takes more than a week to get control, but rest after that week. Prompt shipping by this online company.

I am fighting a losing battle against my grass wanting to grow into my flower beds. I have pulled till my fingers bleed, but the grass keeps coming back. I am not real sure the exact species of grass I have, but I have narrowed it down to either Centipede or Soyia. I would like to know if their is an herbicide I can use to control this issue, and put my fingers on the mend.

Yes, you can mix Fusilade II Herbicide in a 1 or 2 gallon size sprayer. Per the label, for spot spraying you would mix .75 oz of Fusilade II + .50 oz of a non-ionic surfactant with 1 gallon of water.

I am going to use this product with a surfactant to control small patches of bermuda (tiff 419) cropping up in raised beds of native milkweed (Asclepias speciosa, tuberosa, and eriocarpa). Is it safe around milkweed (I am assuming so since it is a flowering perennial)?. Thanks in advance.
Fusilade II Herbicide does not list milkweed on the product label as a tolerable species to applications. We recommend contacting Syngenta 866-796-4368 to confirm that Fusilade II could be used on it.
I mixed 0.2 oz (1.2 teaspoons) in 1/2 gallon of water along with a Non Ionic Surfactant to sprayed over bermudagrass I'm wanting to kill. The Tall Fescue is green but has not grown even a 1/4 inch since and the bermuda is not dying still 2 weeks later.
Bermudagrass is extremely difficult to eliminate and will require several applications and most likely a few seasons. When using Fusilade II Herbicide to remove bermudagrass from Tall Fescue, a Fall application and Spring application is recommended. Fall applications should done in Sept/Oct when bermudagrass is preparing for doramancy and then again in early Spring (April/May) when the bermuda is transitioning out of dormancy. The rate for eliminating bermudagrass from Tall Fescue is 5-6 fl oz per acre in no less than 30 gallons of water/acre. This breaks down to to be 0.11 to 0.13 fl oz per ½ gallon of water per 1000 sq ft
Any discoloration, slow down in growth or discoloration of Tall Fescue should recover within 2 weeks after the application. Please view page 12 of the product label for more information.

Fusilade II Herbicide is labeled to remove bermudagrass from zoysia when used as directed on the product label. Apply 0.07-0.14 oz/1000 sq. ft. (3-6 oz./A) along with 0.25% v/v (1/2 pt./25 gals.) of a nonionic surfactant. Application should be made every 28 days when the grass weeds are actively growing.

Depending on what you are trying to target the Fusilade II Herbicide is safe to be used on zoysia that is established whether it is actively growing or dormant. However, anything you may be trying to eliminate from the zoysia grass will likely not be affected by the Fusilade application if all of the plants are in a dormant state due to the time of year and ground temperatures. Fusilade is a post emergent herbicide and will only control grasses that are in a fully actively growing state. When you do apply the Fusilade, be sure to use a Non Ionic Surfactant for best results.
Per the Fusilade Product Label for use on Zoysiagrass:
Over-spray Zoysia: Application should be made at a rate of 3-4 fl oz/A with Fusilade II Turf and Ornamental Herbicide, and a nonionic surfactant. Applications should be made in late spring (around June 1) and repeated about every 28-30 days. Latesummer application can be reduced to 2-3 fl oz/A as bermudagrass is preparing for dormancy. During hot summer weather the rates could be increased to 4-5 fl oz/A. Note: The 5 fl oz rate could cause temporary turf discoloration.

The grass died at first frost 6 weeks after application. 1000sq ft. Would the Fusilade or Kinetic make the lawn more susceptible to frost damage? The Bermudagrass died within 2 weeks.
We are not aware of either product making grass more susceptible to frost damage, but Fusilade II Herbicide is a grass killer and is not labeled as safe to apply to Kentucky Bluegrass. While it is labeled for removing bermudagrass, this is only in Tall Fescue and Zoysia Lawns. It does state on the product label that it is not for use on home lawns as well. We would recommend reseeding the area.

Fusilade II Herbicide is NOT labeled, nor safe, to use around edibles. Fusilade II may only be used in landscape areas, roadsides, nurseries, greenhouses, flower beds, groundcovers, interiorscapes, parks, sports fields, gold courses, commercial and residential areas. Instead you can use a nonselective product like Glyphosel Pro taking care to avoid contact with the tree/roots themselves.

Fusilade II Herbicide is applied at the following rate for spot applications- 25 gallons water + 1 pint Fusilade + .5 pint surfactant.
Apply 0.07-0.14 oz/1000 sq. ft. (3-6 oz./A) along with 0.25% v/v (1/2 pt./25 gals.) of a nonionic surfactant. Application should be made every 28 days when the grass weeds are actively growing. Keep in mind for herbicides the amount of water is not important. What is important is getting the correct amount of product, over the correct amount of area. Mark off 1000 sq/ft and fill your sprayer tank with only water. Spray as if you were covering the area with the herbicide. However many gallons it takes you to cover that area is how many gallons to mix the product with. Everyone's walking speed and how heavily they spray is different, which is why whether you use 2 gallons or 8 gallons of water to cover 1000 sq/ft, you are correct.
