Customer Reviews for Bio Advanced All-In-One Lawn Weed and Crabgrass Killer

I bought the Bayer Advanced All-In-One Lawn Weed and Crabgrass Killer. It's been two weeks since I applied it to my lawn. There are still many half wilted weeds left. I decided that I needed a second application but wanted to check out the price at a near-by Lowe's Home Center. I found out that I paid at your company. Your price was $17.95 and Lowe's price was $8.97. I can only assume that you claim free shipping, however, the shipping price was included in your price for the same product. I was disappointed.

I have used this product on three (3) seperate occasions. I thought perhaps I was doing something wrong. I spent an evening reviewing the directions and followed the everything to a "T". No luck. It did turn my St. Augustine yellow in spots. But the weeds & Crabgrass are thriving after two (2) weeks. Same results as the first two (2) applications in summers past. Also, it did kill the clovers.

I purchased this product a little over a month ago. I followed the directions to the T. Four week later, I see no signs of the product killing any of the weeds. In fact, it seems like I have more. Very disappointed.

I bought this to control lawn weeds which I believe are foxtail and crabgrass as well as two unidentified weeds in my Arizona Rye grass lawn. The application was done in late February using 3.5oz per gallon. I also added Hi-Yield Sticker Spreader as well as a marking dye to the mix. I applied using a back pack sprayer to 3600 sq. ft. of lawn. Over two weeks later and the foxtail is thriving and none of the other weeds were affected. I even watered a day before application to stimulate weed growth. I contacted Bayer and they responded that the instructions state that certain hard to kill weeds may need a second application at 14 days. I used the whole quart on my lawn and have no plans to buy more of this stuff. Apparently all my lawn weeds fall under the "hard to kill" category.

I just have to say I work for a lawn company and most weed controls take between 10 to 21 days to work it helps if you mow your lawn and bag the clippings from each mowing most weeds have seed heads but personal I understand why some people are not having much luck with this product but I use it and this product is pretty much only a few products that come close to what we use at my job the only difference is we use more of a concentrated form of the 2-4D, Dicamba, dimethylamine salt and Quinclorac would I recommend this product yes because of the ingredients in it but keep in mind all weed controls are just to accelerate the lifecycle of the plant/ weed

I live in eastern Pa. and have spot sprayed crabgrass with Bayer Advanced and Crabgrass Killer and Turbo Surfactant. I sprayed 1 day after a rain with 3.2 oz per gallon of water in a tank sprayer per instructions on page 4 of the label under how much to use. Excellent results crabgrass is yellow in 3days and completely dead in 5 days and grass is still green.

I have used a variety of this maker's products because it was a well known name brand. None of them worked. One product that I bought (Brush Killer) I tried because I had leafing plants and vines in my backyard that I wanted to get rid of. As some have already said, I followed the instructions correctly, sprayed two different kinds of plants and a vine. After three days nothing seemed to happen. I sprayed the plants again and waited three more days. The plants were still green and growing. I sprayed again and waited a week. Finally, after three weeks the plants are starting to yellow but mostly they have just kind of wilted. What a waste of money! I'll never buy this maker's products again. It doesn't do what it says it does or if it does it takes way too long. The only reason that I gave it one star is because the site requires it...otherwise I would give it zero stars.

I used many different products from Ortho Tospectracide and many others before. Some would work on certain weeds and leave the other weeds healthy. I got tired of that and just my luck one day I go in to home depot and a garden associate approached when he saw all the weed killer on my cart and he asked why I had 4 different products. I explained to him my lawn problems and he says to me to try Bayer. I'm thinking to myself Bayer products are so cheap compared to the other stuff I had in my cart, and the associate tells me that for Bayer being so cheap, it is the most effective weed killer when used right. He said that when using Bayer to check the types of weed I have and figure out how much hard to kill species I have and how spread they are and he said even though the bottle would cover 5k square feet I might want to go a little heavier than recommended due to the fact that when using the hose the product gets spread out to thin so I gave it a try and I was astonished with the results. In just 6 days all the weeds on my lawn where gone. I went around my whole lawn and looked for some I might have missed but I couldn't find any. I also added some lime just to make it harder for new weeds to sprout. I would definitely recommend this product.

I can't believe people are giving this bad reviews.. First its cheap. This bottle makes 8 gallons of spray. I live on 1 acre, my front lawn is about 1/4 acre. I first went around with my sprayer right as the sun was setting so I know the sun isn't going to evaporate the spray and the chemicals will stay on the grass all night. I started on the major patches of crabgrass with a thick spray stream, unfortunately the crabgrass is 35%-45% of my large lawn. In 2 days the crabgrass patches are already turning red. I went around again with the sprayer set at a light mist just to go over the patches 1 more time. (only used about 4-5 gallons at this point). I'll be picking up a 4 gallon sprayer this week for $20 and picking up another bottle of this crabgrass killer. I plan on just walking my whole lawn spraying every square foot to get the stragglers. Even if I need 2 more bottles I'm only into this for $60 worth of killer and $20 for the 4 gallon sprayer. So $80 total will kill 1/4 acre of crabgrass. I was quoted over $500 to have a law service come out and do this. Not sure how you can beat this honestly.

After applying the second bottle via my watering hose, the broad leaf weeds were gone and the crabgrass was turning yellow. I may need to apply the product via a hand sprayer to some of the crab grass but all in all I am very happy with the product and would recommend it to anyone with the problem of weeds and crabgrass.

I mixed 3.2 oz / gal in my sprayer and applied according to directions for crabgrass control. It had no effect whatsoever on the crabgrass and has actually damaged the lawn grass surrounding the weed. Very disappointed with this product.

This product will kill Bahia, Carpet. Centipede. and St Augustine grass. These are the grasses used in Sourh Florida. Live and learn. Tested this product on a section of my lawn and in about a week it yellowed and died. Guess what, the weeds survived. Bayer markets this product in South Florida knowing that it will kill its customers lawns. Thanks Bayer,

Difficult to find in retail stores in some areas. Good price for very effective selective herbicide. Only product I've ever found that is effective to kill crabgrass and my neighbor's encroaching St. Augustine post-season!

Works, but takes it's sweet time, even on clover.

Purchased with the intention of killing a limited amount of clover in my yard. This product did kill the clover, but also turned my beautiful grass a yellow tint and it has remained this color for over a week now. I will never use this product again. I used the recommended dosage and applied as evenly as possible. I pray it does not kill my yard, that was once the pride of the street.

If I could give this a negative rating, I would. I purchased this 2 times from a big box store and returned it each time. I will not purchase another Bayer product. The red plastic piece that connects the wand to the bottle will not stay in the hole at the top of the container. Even my husband couldn't get the red piece to stay in the hole in the container.

Small lawn (trailer park) nice lawn yet several weeds throughout. Tried All In One, disappointed 1st couple weeks but saw minor results so applied again. Fairly impressed after 2nd application yet did a 3rd time in 2 more weeks. Weeds all gone & grass has filled in. Follow directions, be patient, keep hoping & Believing.

One of the few things that works. Hand sprayer or broadcast application. Works selectively.

I had good results from Bayer products in the past but this Bioadvanced Crabgrass and Weed Killer is virtually worthless. I applied per instructions. The instructions said 10-14 days to do the job. It is now 11 days and the weeds are flowering happily. The crabgrass is thriving. I will use the rest on the lawn to see if it does any good but I don't think that there is any hope of it doing some good.

It works fine for us - kills the weeds and not the grass - best on the wide leaf weeds. Hard to understand why people are having so much trouble with this product. not sure it works on yellow flowered clover

Understanding how hard it is to kill crabgrass and not our Lawns even using other products with crabgrass control or I've had luck using this product I think multiple applications is appropriate crabgrass is a hard thing to kill and takes long time to die but I did notice it's starting to discolor and turn in a letter yellow which means it's dying it just takes a long long time but so far better than any other product I've seen for crabgrass

Sprayed per instructions and still have tons of crabgrass two weeks later. Sprayed again and hopefully the 2nd time will do the trick. Noticed that the fleet farm brand had a higher percentage of chemicals than the Bayer container and advertised the same sq ft coverage - should have went that route

I sprayed this Bayer Advance weed & crab grass killer according to the directions, using an Ortho sprayer hose attachment with a setting on '3'.. It worked as advertised. Creeping, crawling, sprouting weeds started dieing in 24 hours. Two days later I could clearly see the yellow color in the dieing weeds. By day four the weeds were starting to shrivel and almost completely dead, with no negative damage to the lawn grass. This product is truly remarkable.

Followed all directions. Even after 2 applications many weeds survived. Various clovers were basically unharmed.

Works but hard to know just how to mix and what sprayer. Wish I would have got a couple more of the hose ready ones.
