DIRECTIONS FOR USE

WHERE TO USE

This provides selective broad-leaf control in the cool and warm-season turfgrass.

  • Commercial and Residential sites: Apartment complexes, Condominiums, Nursing Homes, Hospitals, or Convalescent Homes.

TURFGRASS TOLERANCE

  • The turfgrass tolerance to this product may vary and temporary turfgrass yellowing may occur on certain varieties of hybrid bermudagrass and the listed warm season turf species.
  • Do not apply this product to St. Augustinegrass during spring green-up which is the transition period between dormancy and active growth.
  • Cultivars of St. Augustinegrass vary in tolerance to this product. Do not apply this product to 'Floratam' St. Augustinegrass.
  • Environmental conditions and certain spray tank additives (e.g. adjuvants, wetting agents, surfactants), liquid fertilizers, and tank mixtures containing other emulsifiable concentrates may reduce the selectivity on the turfgrass,
  • The user assumes the responsibility for any turf (plant) injury, damage, or other liability resulting from the use of this product on turf species not listed on this labeling.

These cool season and warm-season turfgrass species may be treated:

  • Cool Season Turf: Kentucky bluegrass, Perennial ryegrass, Tall fescue, Red or fine leaf fescues, mixtures of cool-season species
  • Warm Season Turf: Bahiagrass, Buffalograss, centipedegrass, Common bermudagrass, Hybrid bermudagrass, St. Augustinegrass (excluding "Floratam'), Zoysiagrass

APPLICATION SCHEDULES

Early post-emergent applications of this product are recommended for annual, biennial, and perennial weeds. Apply this product to broadleaf weeds that are young and actively growing for the best results. This product combines a contact herbicide with systemic herbicides and provides little or no residual activity at specified use rates.

This may be applied as a single broadcast application or as a split/sequential broadcast application in the spring, summer, or fall. Spring and fall treatments under adequate soil moisture conditions are preferred to the summer treatments. Generally, summer broadcast applications to older, drought-stressed weeds are less effective.

Sequential broadcast applications or follow-up applications as spot treatments at 30 days are recommended for more mature weeds, for dense infestations, and for adverse environmental conditions.

Spot treatments during the summer may be appropriate for sparse infestations, or as a follow-up treatment, or any time broadleaf weeds are susceptible. Apply on a spray-to-wet basis for the best results.

Extremes in environmental conditions, e.g. temperature and moisture, soil conditions, and cultural practices may affect the activity of this product. Under warm moist conditions, herbicide symptoms may be accelerated. While under very dry conditions, the expression of herbicide symptoms is delayed, and weeds hardened off by drought are less susceptible to this product.

For newly seeded areas:

The application of this product to grass seedlings is recommended after the second mowing.

For newly sodded, sprigged, or plugged areas:

The application of this product to newly sodded, sprigged, or plugged grasses should be delayed until 3 to 4 weeks after the sodding, sprigging, or plugging operations.

For dormant turf:

Applications to dormant bermudagrass and dormant zoysiagrass are suggested.

Prohibitions for applications schedules:

  • Do not broadcast apply when air temperatures exceed 85 degrees F; some injury may be expected with spot treatments when aor temperatures exceed 85 degrees F.

    Bonide best I've used

    By Jd on 12/27/2019

    I live on 20 acres and learned about Bonide Weed Beater Ultra from a radio show called Gardenline. This product works in cooler weather and works well on broad leaf plants and weeds. I spray my fence lines and both sides of our road. Try it you will not be disappointed

    Bonnie weed Beater

    By Dale on 04/09/2019

    I purchased Weed Beater to kill wild violets but not real satisfied with the results. It is kind of hit and miss and kill ratio is very low. Perplexed!

    By Angie on 05/07/2022

    This weed killer, that's supposed to not harm Zoysia grass, killed my grass everywhere we sprayed it. Don't risk it.
