I have sprayed with Weedmaster at rate of 1 oz per gallon with no effect. Do I need a higher ratio or something else like Speedzone?
Weedmaster Herbicide is not labeled to control wild strawberries, so we would not recommend it for this use. Weedmaster will control blackberry and other vines at higher rates. You would use 2-4 ounces of concentrate per gallon of water to cover 1,000 square feet for vine control. You may need to wait 1-6 weeks to see full results when treating vines. For wild strawberry, Speedzone would be a great choice. Most herbicides with Trimec will treat this plant, and you will get the best control when spraying plants that are in the 4-leaf to flowering stage. You can browse all the herbicides we carry for this weed here.
