This works!
By Debbie on 10/06/2017
I read the reviews and q's & a's before applying. I think using the surfactant along with the Drive is very important. The crabgrass turned brown & died within a few days. It is advised to then remove the dead crabgrass. We have so much! I have removed most from the front area, but may not be able to remove all of it - just due to time constraints. I will be using a pre-emergent this spring. If I don't remove the dead crabgrass from the remaining areas of the yard I will be able to see if that step makes a difference when I compare results next summer between the front area and the rest.

crabgrass slayer
By Shane on 05/19/2018
mixing suggestion...I spray 1000 sf with about 2 gallons in a pump sprayer. That gives a mix ratio of about 0.725 oz (1.45 Tbsp) per gallon. The spot spray recommendation of 3Tbsp per gallon is a little too strong and will turn surrounding Bermuda grass yellow.

Mixed feelings
By Eddie on 06/01/2018
I used the product as stated by the directions on label and had little effectiveness on the weeds in my Bermuda yard. It does help to kill some of the weeds on the label which it states it can control but I did not have that high of positive results. I did a second application about 4 week after to try and strengthen the efficiency of the product with only minor improvements. I will continue to use the product seeing how I have already opened and started using it but I am hopeful that there maybe a chance for a positive outcome in the near future. Somethings just get better with time. Fingers crossed????????

Weed Wars
By Jd on 06/24/2018
Just finished my second treatment. I had thick crabgrass completely take over my side yard (on 2 acres). The first treatment got about 30% of it. The second treatment looks to be working better after adding the surfactant and going slower with 30gal tow spray rig. My biggest problem is not being able to buy this stuff in bulk. I need 2.5 gal jugs, not this little apple juice box. At 1.5 oz per gallon, I make 45 gallons. Empty!!! Gotta buy more.

Works Perfect
By Brad on 07/06/2018
Just add MSO and it works perfectly. Used in my new Zoysia grass. I used the product 8 weeks after the sod was laid. I pulled the crabgrass (including the roots) multiple times. It kept coming back. It took two passes with this product to get everything. The Zoysia was slightly stressed but not harmed.

Actually Works
By Frank on 08/24/2018
I have been using this on major sections of the lawn that are covered with crabgrass. I use it a day or two before forcasted rain, and it has been working perfectly. It kills the crabgrass and does not harm the turf grass. It takes 3-4 days to see results, and a few more days to completely kill the crabgrass. I have been using it with the DyneAmic surfacant. The combination has been very effective. I just have a 2 gallon tank sprayer (nothing fancy), and spray a section at a time.

Finally
By Bud on 08/28/2018
This product worked to perfection in killing off a stubborn infestation of crabgrass in my kentucky blue lawn. Mixed with DyneAmic Surfactant in a gallon handpump sprayer crab was dead in two days after application. 30 gallons overall. Had a heavy rain storm the third day after application which washed away dead crab and lawn is looking normal. Approximately 3/4 acre of lawn.
Herbicide That Works !
By Jc on 08/29/2018
I applied Drive XLR8 on a Saturday morning, along with the Prime Source Duo Stick Adjuvant, on my fescue lawn that had several patches of mature crabgrass. By Monday afternoon, 95% of the areas I spot-sprayed indicated crabgrass that was dying (light tan color) and wilting. I mixed a gallon of the product according to the label directions. Bottom line, this is Herbicide that works !

No support from BASF
By Jrm on 09/07/2018
Stuff killed crabgrass sure but directions were confusing. 1.45 oz per 1000 sf. Amount of water not important. Tried to call BASF for help but they do not want to talk to public. So without setting up a major testing event I just winged it. It worked. Directions also said. Too much and you kill your lawn. To little and does not work. I used a mighty Mac 22gal spray system with modifications. I added a spray boom and a wireless remote control electric selonoid valve.
