Dismiss Turf Herbicide is not labeled for dallisgrass. We do carry several other products labeled for it here.
You should keep people and pets out of the area treated with Dismiss Turf Herbicide until the product has dried completely. This may be anywhere from 1-4 hours depending on weather conditions like temperature and how much sunlight the treatment area receives.
Dismiss Turf Herbicide is believed to be compatible with most herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, growth regulators, liquid fertilizers and spray adjuvants commonly used in turf and ornamental plant management. Just be sure to follow the mix rates for each product.
Dismiss Turf Herbicide cannot be shipped/used in California. Please provide the desired area and targeted weeds for an alternate recommendation. We are happy to help!
Dismiss Turf Herbicide is labeled for use on tall fescue and can be used at the rate of anywhere from 4 - 12 oz. per 20 - 175 gallons of water per acre. Depeding upon the square footage of your yard that you applied it to, it could harm the turf if it was applied at too high of a rate. We would suggest that you water it a great deal to try to disipate the product more quickly.
Yes, Dismiss Turf Herbicide is labeled to kill green kyllinga.
Once Dismiss has been mixed with water, it should be used or discarded within 24 hours.
According to the Dismiss Turf product label, you can reapply the Dismiss 35 days after the first application to ensure no harm to your lawn and acheive better control of the hardy weeds in the lawn.
Dismiss Turf Herbicide has no temperature restrictions unless it’s above 90 degrees. But the weeds would need to be actively growing in order for the proudct to be effective, and that is usually when temperatures are above 55 degrees. For control of bittercress in your fescue lawn at lower temperatures, you can use something with an Ester formula like SpeedZone. Keep in mind that the weeds would still need to be growing for best results.
Dismiss Turf Herbicide should only be applied to established sod, generally at least 3 months after installation and not within 3 months of harvesting new sod, per the product label. Since this is just a post-emergent herbicide, it would not be applied to bare ground before sod is installed. We currently do not carry a pre-emergent product labeled for nutsedge that can be applied to the bare ground prior to laying down sod.
Dismiss Turf Herbicide does not have a restriction for applying during spring greenup and would be safe when applied as directed on the label.
Dismiss Turf Herbicide is not labeled to control dayflower.
There is no set number of times you can apply Dismiss Turf Herbicide. You just need to be sure you do not go over the max application rates on the label for your turf type
The application rate for Dismiss Turf Herbicide will depend on your grass type. The rate for cool seasons grasses is 0.092-0.18 fl oz per 1,000 sq ft or 4-8 oz per acre and 0.18-0.275 fl oz per 1,000 sq ft or 8-12 oz per acre for warm season grasses.
In order to determine the amount of water you will need to use in your 100 gal tank you will need to mark off a 1,000 sq ft area and go over that area with just water. You will then need to do the math to determine how much water will cover your entire area you are planning to treat and determine the amount of product used for your grass type. For example, if it takes 2 gallons of water to cover 1,000 sq ft and you have a cool season grass and you are planning to treat 5,000 sq ft you will need to use 0.46-0.9 fl oz in 10 gallons of water to cover the entire 5,000 sq ft.
Yes, Dismiss Turf is safe for dogs after the treated area has dried. This may be anywhere from 1-4 hours depending on weather conditions like temperature and how much sunlight the treatment area receives. We recommend that you avoid areas where pets may spend the most time if you are concerned about contact or ingestion in those areas.

Overseeding of bermudagrass with perennial ryegrass at two (2) to four (4) weeks after an application can be done if slight injury to perennial ryegrass can be tolerated.

You will want to wait at least 24 hours before or after a rain/heavy dew to make an application of Dismiss Turf Herbicide.
We recommend using a product that specifically states bahia grass will tolerate it. Please look in to Fertilome Weed Free Zone. This product will treat many different types of broadleaf weeds and bahia grass will tolerate it. We recommed that you treat with SedgeHammer for the treatment of nutsedge in your lawn. Please read the product labels for both products prior to application for more detailed information.
