    Works great

    By Dave on 08/17/2024

    When I was researching products for my crabgrass infestation I read reviews here saying that this product was not any good. I’m here to say they’re wrong. Applied according to the directions, you could see it start working within 2 days. I’d buy this again. It’s fantastic.

    Drive XLR8 Works

    By F. on 08/22/2024

    I live in western PA. 2024 spring was wet and I did not get pre-emergence spread; therefore by end of June crab was appearing. We had a terrible hot spell and dry, the crab just kept maturing. Until spray conditions and temperature were within guidelines the crab had matured to the point of the tillers producing seed. Mixed 6 (3 gallon) tanks per directions (without 2,4,D) and went on the attack. There were drifts of crab all over the yard. I sprayed on August 7, marked my calendar, and walked the yard August 22. It's gone! This is a crabgrass KILLER!

    XLR8 Worked Incredibly in Wisconsin in August on Crabgrass

    By John on 08/23/2024

    Starting in early Summer, I had crabgrass slowly overtaking my yard. It was choking out and killing all of my good grass. After trying a variety of tactics and products I found XLR8. It worked fantastic. I sprayed our entire yard (about 1 acre of grass). It targeted ONLY the cragrass, all good grass was untouched and has continued to flourish. The label says to not apply more than 1 gallon per acre per season, which is the equivalent of what I did. I think this is more of a rule-of-thumb than a true rule. The label does not know how much crabgrass you're dealing with. In my case, I had massive sections of nothing but crabgrass- in that case, you can put it on thick, in my opinion. I certainly had some areas where I went thicker than others and the surrounding grass is just fine. Now that I have the majority of it taken care of, I can easily spot spray where needed. For those interested, you will see results in about 2-3 days. it starts by yellowing (2-3 days), then orange (3-10 days), then brown (10-20 days), then shrivels up (20+). The growth stops immediately though, which is great. It actually works best when the crabgrass is more isolated (like along roadway gravel) and dense (patches of it die quickly). The crabgrass that is more integrated with the rest of the lawn takes slightly longer but ultimately succumbs to the same fate. :) I also, I used "Non-Ionic Surfactant for Herbicides Gallon" which did a great job of binding. It recommends a seed oil, but in my opinion this was not necessary and just costs more.

    Get DRIVE for Crabgrass control

    By Greg on 08/30/2024

    We have about 40 acres of land - 5 of grass and 35 of woods. I'm a "grass" guy and my wife is a "tree & flower" gal. I regularly use granular & liquid chemicals & fertilizers on the grass as I like a nice lawn. All my grass areas are irrigated. My historic "go-to" for weed control is Weed-B-Gone however, it's been a losing battle against the aggressive crabgrass. In talking with my wife's Botanists and Arborists, they turned me on to DRIVE XLR8. Amazon wouldn't deliver it in my location so I went on the web and found it at DoMyOwn. They quickly shipped out the product along with (needed) MSO Surfactant. I applied at a rate of 1.5 oz of DRIVE and 1/2 oz MSO per gallon of water per 1,000 SF using a 26-gallon electric tank broadcast sprayer off a golf cart. The results were amazing. This stuff WORKS! The crabgrass is gone and now I'm happily reseeding. I highly recommend DRIVE and DoMyOwn.

    Arrivederci, Adios, goodbye forever, crabgrass

    By Rose on 08/30/2024

    I love you, Drive XLR8. This stuff works wonders! My sea of crabgrass is no more. I wish you came in a pelletized version for easier, faster application, but this stuff delivers great results.

    Crabgrass Killer

    By Jackie on 09/13/2024

    I have looked for years, trying many different brands and this is the only thing I have found that will kill the crabgrass in my yard. At first I didn't think this was going to work either but it just takes longer than most weed/grass killers. But it killed it all!

    This stuff really works!

    By Gerald on 09/16/2024

    I literally hate crabgrass, and have never found anything that would kill it. This stuff really did the job, and I wonder what my yard will look like next year. Will grass come up and fill in? Time will tell, but the crabgrass certainly looks defeated now!
