*Note: Certainty Turf Herbicide is not labeled for golf course putting greens or within 4 feet of the putting green.
Dallisgrass: Please note that Certainty is labeled for suppression of dallisgrass only and can only be used for dallisgrass when tank mixed with another herbicide such as MSMA or Revolver (which are not for residential use).
Certainty Herbicide works best when applied to established warm-season grasses (such as bermudagrass, zoysiagrass, and others) while target weeds are actively growing.
For optimal results and lawn safety:
Avoid applying during the transition period (when grass is coming out of dormancy), as turf is more sensitive at this stage. Applications during transition can cause temporary discoloration or slowed growth, though the grass typically recovers.
It’s best to avoid applying right before or during spring green-up. This transition period is when turfgrass is most sensitive.
If an application is necessary during this time:
Whenever possible, wait until your lawn is either fully dormant or fully green to minimize stress and achieve the best outcome.
Certainty Herbicide begins working quickly, but visible results take time:
Performance depends heavily on the environment:
Even if you don’t see immediate changes, the product is actively working below the surface.
Certainty Herbicide uses a scoop-based measurement system, and the correct rate depends on:
Included scoop sizes:
Because application rates vary, always refer to the product label’s mix chart for precise instructions based on your specific weed and turf type. This ensures both effective control and turf safety.
For best weed control results:
This allows the herbicide to fully absorb through the foliage and roots, maximizing effectiveness.

Kills poa annua in centipede
By Rich on 02/22/2015
After fighting poa annua for the last few years it is good to find something that works. It seems expensive for such a small amount of product, but the amount used per gallon of water is so small it is cost effective. Works much better than the atrazine I used before. Great product and produced results in only 2 weeks.

Quackgrass Dead On Arrival!
By Ken on 05/26/2016
Used properly per instruction, quack grass started turning yellow on 3rd day, bright yellow by the 7 day, and wilting over 2 weeks out. Must use the Dyne Amic with this product. See my other review for (Drive) product. Newly planted Princess 77 lawn. Killed all the Quackgrass, the Bermuda kept smiling!

Awesome
By Jeff on 07/07/2015
I had a bad infestation on nutsedge and we were getting a lot of rain everyday decided to mix it up and give it a shot in front of the rain one day only three hours before receiving half an inch of rain but within 7 days the sedge is already 90% dead. Well worth the money

Worked! Killed Quack and Crab Grass Not Kentucky Bluegrass
By Tracy on 06/18/2020
I was worried about using something this expensive and not knowing what I was doing. We also have Kentucky blue grass and I did not see that it was one of the approved grasses that it would not hurt. I used 5 small scoops for every two gallons and also used Surfactant and blue dye to make sure it was evenly sprayed. The First week or two I thought I had wasted my money. Nothing looked like it was going to die, and it stunted the growth of my whole lawn to the point that we only had to mow it after two weeks instead of one. I was worried it was going to kill my whole lawn. After about a month it noticed that the quack and crab grass was turning brown. It has now been a couple months and my normal grass is doing fine and I have a bunch of dead areas where all the quake/crab were really thick and I am putting down some extra seed to get something growing there. Hope this helps.

Are there any chemicals available through your company that can eradicate quackgrass?
Live in MA. Have a predominantly KBG lawn, with some tall fescue creeping in places that I would like to get rid of. After application, how soon can I re-seed any bare spots or over-seed the whole lawn? Thanks!
