Customer Reviews for Blindside Herbicide WDG

First, excellent customer service. Call them up with questions and they will get you the answers you need and are very polite. I live in South Florida. I have St. Augustine grass (Floratam and Palmetto). I used this product on January 11, 2021, for the first time. I have Florida pusley, torpedo grass, Virginia buttonwood, crab grass, white clover, nutsedge, dollar weed, and various other South Florida favorites (I recently bought a home with a neglected lawn that I have been working to rebuild and store-bought products were just not cutting it). Blindside went to work within 24 hours on broadleaves. They were almost completely withered away within 3 days. I have seen a notable impact on highly established weeds that were unfazed by Scotts Weed and Feed Triple Action. However, this product is slow acting, so full results expected within another 2 weeks. Notably, the dollarweed was surprisingly resistant, and Roundup (the version that's safe for lawns) typically handles dollarweed with little difficulty. I anticipate that a second application will be necessary to kill off the more well-established and difficult weeds. overall, five stars and highly recommend.

Initially when I read some of the reviews from people who had followed the instructions.yet were unsussful in ridding their lawn of weeds I was a bit skeptical as to whether I would be any different. I was committed to reading the lengthy instructions repeatedly. So as soon as the sun came up when the grass was dewy and there was no wind i spot treated the weeds. I do not have any rain for 3 days I ran the irrigation system. The weeds were sprayed on April 21st and all 11 different varieties of weeds are shriveling up and dying today May 3rd. I can vouch for the fact that they were surely blindsided! This product works in my St Augustine grass is unscathed

Great results, treated in early Oct (N-FLA) - cut the lawn a bit shorter than usual then treated thereafter. FOLLOW THOSE DIRECTIONS, the least amount to get the job done is key, used backpack along with a spreader/sticker and a blue turf mark. Intend on follow up with a PRE-Emergent in Jan. I anticipate using this again after my St Auggie shows some solid growth - late spring. BTW, Dollar weed does not like "lime" consider adding lawn lime/sweeten the soil. GLTA

Heavy infestation of Carpet Grass and some Dollar Weed. Saw results in a few days on Carpet Grass and a few more days for the Dollar Weed.

I live in SC and have bermuda in my front lawn and centipede in the back, both of which were infested with poa annua, so I needed a herbicide that was safe for both. Blindside worked great and was the best thing I've used to kill poa! The poa was dead within a week and didn't come back. Blindside also killed all the other grassy weeds, except crabgrass, and all of the broadleaf weeds as well. A nice feature of Blindside is that it keeps working for months and months and apparently through the winter. I sprayed it in late November for some winter weeds, and, come spring, I had very few weeds.

Great product, killed all my weeds a week after applying this product and did not kill my lawn. This is the product I have been looking for. Tried a number of herbicides from local hardware stores but they did nothing and are all just loaded with junk (check the ingredients).

I live in Central Florida and have St. Augustine grass with perhaps 8 or 9 types of weeds. My yard has lots of weeds. I applied Blindside Herbicide WDG to my grass and within a few days the weeds were turning brown but the grass didn't. I was impressed with how effective this Blindside Herbicide WDG was on St. Augustine grass. It really killed my weeds. I have since purchased a second bottle.

It's expensive in my eyes but when you think about it your getting many application per 1000 and way more for spot treatment. Overall I see results in 5 day

It turned into a very lucky day when I googled info on getting rid of Star of Bethlehem and creeping Woodsorrell in my yard and Blindside was recommended. We inherited the weeds in the St.Augustine sod we purchased two years ago. Blindside is a miracle!! On the surface every weed I sprayed has disappeared. If the roots and bulbs underneath die as well, we will have a pretty yard next spring. Thank you

I have battled Virginia Buttonweed all summer. Nothing worked until I tried Blindside. Not only did it kill it, I've also wiped out nutgrass better and faster than Sledgehammer or anything else. My St. Augustine went in to mild shock for a short time but is thriving again and fighting to recover from the onslaught of button weed. This stuff is great. It also killed some unknown fine grasses that were taking over. I love this stuff.

This product does what it says it will do. And, you cannot ever go wrong with ordering any product from DO MY OWN.

I knew I had weeds in my lawn but this product really demonstrated how many. Used Atrazine previously to try to get the weeds under control without the success of one application of this chemical. Within 7 days the majority of weeds had brown leaves, even the crabgrass leaves were purple. The St Augustine blades were unaffected as if nothing happened. Planning on a second application after two weeks to get some resistant weeds under control. Would strongly recommend some form of marking chemical to keep track of where the chemical was applied.

This stuff is the bomb! I had Crabgrass, Nutsedge, Kyllinga, and Doveweed growing in my newly seeded Bermuda lawn. I had to wait for the Bermuda to establish itself, about 10 weeks, and then bang. This stuff works in hours not days or weeks. Sprayed at 8:00 am and heavy yellowing of the above weeds by 8:00 pm. I put 2.5 ounces in a towable tank sprayer with 30 gallons of water and a dye marker to treat a 14,000 SF lawn. I did some spot treating for Goosegrass with another product first. For grassy weeds, other than Goosegrass, this is my go to product. I wish I could post before and after pictures at the 12 hour post application mark.

I ran a professional landscape business for over 25 years till I moved full time in Florida. I strongly agree use this product to control my weed in my own yard. It will give you the best results on weed in this climate.

I have tried Celsius on my st Augustine grass with NO or very little results.. I went all in and purchased the blindside .. WoW the weeds now don't stand a chance !! Wish I would have purchased this a LONG time ago.

I sprayed according to directions and it took about 7 to 10 days before I noticed weeds dying, but once they started, they died in abundance. Still waiting to see if the dollar weed will be affected by it.

This stuff works. Try it on your own and you will see results within couple of days

Sprayed my bermuda grass lawn as it had been taken over by button weed, at least 50% of the lawn was weeds. I used the high end mixture, using the handy measure cup....started seeing results in about a week and after 6 weeks the button weed is 100% gone with no effect on bermuda. First herbicide I have used that actually has a total kill. 10 stars!!

I applied this product in March to my Florida St. Augustine yard with the primary desire to control crabgrass. I was careful to apply the correct coverage. It definitely has killed various weeds without damaging the grass although I do notice some browning of the tips of grass leaves but that may be cold damage. Regardless, the grass survived. The jury is still out on the crabgrass however. Definitely seems to have browned up some of the crabgrass but the roots seem unaffected. The literature says it “suppresses” crabgrass. My experience appears to confirm that. I’ll know better when the growing season really gets going. I plan to apply a second treatment then. But I am still looking for a “killer” for crabgrass in my St. Augustine lawn.

Sections of my yard were infested with dove and button weed. Too much to pull by hand. Applied .23 Blindside per gallon water in my backpack sprayer and sprayed the entire infested areas. Started seeing results within a week and second week. Really amazing because the St. Augustin is still alive but you can see brown dead stuff wherever there were those weeds. Some places there was nothing but dove weed and it's totally annihilated so I'll re-sod there. The surprise was it killed off the button weed also! It stunted the grass growth a little but it was becoming dormant. Anyway, I picked a dry spell here on the Texas Gulf Coast when I sprayed. Totally worth my money and I have plenty left over just in case. Thank you customer service and these reviews.

I applied the Blindside as recommended. After 3 days crabgrass started to die. I am very happy with the results.

Bought it off of a recommendation. Glad I did within 48 hrs I saw results. Pick this product up. You won't be disappointed.

We used in December and wrote a review. You will be pleased to know all the grass is coming back. I was worried for a while but back using your good products and grass is all coming in with no weeds.

I've tried many different big box clover killers multiple times. None were even closely effective, all I did was harm my St Augustine. I tried Blindside one time and it wiped out this hard to kill clover in my southern Alabama lawn. Worth the price and very effective. Worked so well I hope the cover comes back so I can kill it again, lol. PS I used the lower rate and it was excellect.

This stuff is expensive but worth it. First time I made progress getting rid of the weeds in my St. Augustine lawn.

Sedge it does an ok job but absolutely destroys doveweed! I live the the Dallas area and I'll be buying this again when I run out. Highly recommend and worth the cost.

My yard was getting infested with dove weed. Blindside did a great job and did not harm my bermuda grass.

Very strong stuff. Exactly what I was looking for. This will kill all your weeds and some other varieties of grass. I had mostly St Augustine so all good.

I live in south Florida where everything grows out of bounds including weeds. I got sho tired off spending half my outside time filling barrels with leaky weeds from my planted beds. My pavers looked horrible. Blindside takes only three days to show signs of working and after a week or so weeds are close to dead. This saves my back and no more aching muscles from bending over for hours.
