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. 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.
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. The higher rates may result in temporary discolorization of the desirable turf with recovery in 10-14 days. Do not apply to desirable turf which is under stress. For best results, make applications in spring and fall and avoid treatments during July and August.
Complete control of undesirable grass may take 1-2 growing seasons.
We also recommend calling your local county extension office as they usually know the optimum times for spraying lawns in your area.
