The main difference between the two products is that the Eraser A/P has an agricultural label to allow you to use on or near labeled crops and edibles, where the Eraser 41% Weed Killer Herbicide does not have the agricultural label. Although they both have the same active ingredient, Glyphosate, and the same amount of the active ingredient, there are also inert ingredients that may affect whether a product can be used on or near edibles.
How much Eraser 41% Weed Killer Herbicide you need for your 300 gallon tank will depend on what kind of plants you are targeting and how large of an area you are covering with that tank.
In general, you will use 1.5 oz. per gallon of water (per 300 sq ft) to control most annual weeds, and 2.5 oz. per gallon of water (per 300 sq ft) to control hard to kill perennial weeds. Please refer to the product label for complete application instructions.
Eraser 41% Weed Killer Herbicide can be reapplied in 7 days as needed. Most treated weeds usually show initial symptoms in 2-4 days and complete kill in 1-2 weeks. Hard-to control weeds may require a second application if not completely dead in 4 weeks.
You will need to wait 14 days before you replant in areas treated with Eraser 41% Weed Killer Herbicide
Eraser 41% Weed Killer Herbicide is a non selective herbicide so it will kill both weeds and turfgrass at the labeled rates. For most annual weeds, apply at the rate of 1 1/3 fl oz per gallon of water; use 2 2/3 oz to control tougher or hard to kill perennial weeds.
Any barespots in turfgrass can be reseeded after 2 weeks if needed. Please refer to the product label for complete application instructions.
Eraser 41% Weed Killer Herbicide will kill any plant or tree that you spray it on. It is non-selective, meaning it will affect anything it touches. If you have a large tree though, then you would have to use a large amount of it directly on the stump or get it in the trunk of the tree by drilling into it for it to die. Larger trees are not normally affected by overspray or by applying Eraser to other plants or grass nearby.
Eraser 41% Weed Killer Herbicide does not affect insects in the area but the animals could be finding more seeds and insects in the area as the grass/cover they had is killed off.

Eraser 41% Weed Killer Herbicide will suppress or control many types of woody brush and trees such as sweetgum when applied as a stump treatment. For best resutls, immediately treat the stump after being cut down (within 5 minutes). Cut stump close to the soil surface, make 4-5 nail holes in the freshly cut stump surface and then flood the stump with undiluted product.
Refer to the Stump Treatment Section located on page 8 of the product label.
Unfortunately, privet is going to be difficult to kill and can take repeat applications to new growth for some time. Glyphosate and triclopyr are the two most effective chemicals to prevent the re-growth of privet hedges.
For young Privet, foliar applications with Eraser 41% Weed Killer Herbicide can be applied at the rate of 2.5 fl oz (5 Tbs) per gallon of water spraying the foliage to wet but not to the point of run off. Good spray coverage over the entire plant is very important as privet shrubs sprayed only on the sides will not be completely killed. The optimal timing for glyphosate treatment is late fall to early winter (November through early January) when day temperatures are mild.
For established privet, we would recommend cut stump treatments where you would cut the stump down just above the ground and then immediately apply a brush killer such as Fertilome Brush Killer with a paintbrush (or full strength) onto the stump. If the privet has an open, tree-like form, cut off the side limbs first and then cut the main truck as close as possible to the ground. If it is growing as a compact shrub, cut it at the base and then drag the whole plant away as one piece
If the privet is taller than 6 to 8 feet, consider using other methods such as brush mulching, basal bark, or cut stump treatment with a 41% Glyphosate + Surfactant or Triclopyr herbcide is suggested.
Please review this article by Alabama A&M & Auburn University Extension Office that has some great information on alternative methods for treating Privet.
Eraser 41% Weed Killer Herbicide is mixed at 1.5 fl oz to 2.5 fl oz per gallon of water per 300 sq ft.
