Avoid direct spray or drift onto desirable plants, lawn grasses, shrubs, and trees. Protect desirable plants and vegetation with a piece of plastic or cardboard. If desirable plants are accidentally sprayed, wash plants with water immediately.

APPLICATION RESTRICTIONS
Do not apply this product in a way that will contact any person or pet, either directly or through drift. Keep people and pets out of the area during application. Do not mow, cut or otherwise disturb treated vegetation for at least seven days following application. Do not use on or around edible feed or food crops. Do not make more than two applications per year to any given area. Do NOT use for spot weed treatment in lawns, since Spectracide® Weed & Grass Killer Concentrate2 kills all green plants, including lawn grasses.

WHERE TO USE
GENERAL WEED CONTROL: Use along fences, paths, patios, sidewalks, curbs and driveways, and around ornamental trees, shrubs, flower beds and plantings around buildings. Use for trimming and edging landscapes.
SPOT TREATMENTS: Spray directly on actively growing weeds in and around flower beds, ornamental trees, shrubs, fences, driveways and walkways.
LANDSCAPES: For use in preparing areas for planting of ornamentals, trees, shrubs, desert landscapes, rock gardens, flower beds or similar plantings. Treated areas can be replanted one day after treatment.
FOR LAWN RENOVATION/REPLACEMENT:
  1. Determine size of area to be treated — measure length and width in feet, then multiply to determine coverage area in square feet (length x width).
  2. Use this product to remove the old lawn and existing weeds and grasses.
  3. For best results, apply in spring or fall, when daytime temperatures are at least 60°F.
  4. If the lawn is dry, water lawn every other day for a week before applying this product.
  5. Do not mow for seven days before or after treatment.
  6. Use 7 fl oz (14 Tbsp) per gallon of water for each 300 sq ft of area to be treated.

WHEN TO APPLY
  • For best results, apply during warm, sunny weather (above 60°F) when weeds are actively growing. Rainfall or watering 15 minutes after application will not wash away effectiveness.
  • To avoid drift to desirable plants, apply when the air is calm.

WHEN TO REPLANT

  • All ornamental flowers, trees and shrubs may be planted one day after application.

TIPS FOR REPLANTING

  • Wait seven days after last application to rake, till or replant with seed or sod.
  • Rake up and remove loosened thatch or debris.
  • Mix in starter fertilizer and soil amendments, if needed. Level the soil.
  • Apply seed according to directions on seed package, or install sod. Grass seed must have good contact with soil to germinate and grow.
  • Keep area moist for two weeks to establish new lawn, then water as needed.

HOW TO APPLY‡

  • Completely wet the foliage of the target vegetation. Do not overspray.
  • A single application controls most weeds.
  • Most treated weeds usually show initial symptoms within 24 hours and complete kill in one to two weeks.
  • Protect desirable plants with a piece of plastic or cardboard.
  • If desirable plants are accidentally sprayed, wash plants with water immediately.

‡ Visual symptoms and time to complete kill will depend on weed and grass type, temperature and application rate.
