Since wiregrass is also a species of bermudagrass, there is not a product that would selectively remove it and not harm the bermuda. In this case it would be best to spot treat it with a product like RoundUp QuikPro and reseed the desirable bermuda in those areas.
Fusilade II Herbicide is not labeled for dollarweed specifically and is used to control grassy weeds. To control broadleaf weeds in landscape beds or around ornamentals, we would recommend using Snapshot 2.5 TG in early spring before the weeds germinate and spot treating the dollarweed when it is actively growing with a non selective herbicide like Roundup.
Fusilade II Herbicide is not labeled for hogweed therefore we could not guarantee its effectiveness. Unfortunately, we do not have an alternative for use in flower beds to treat for hogweed. We would suggest contacting your local master gardener for more specific assistance.
We apologize, but we are not familiar with a product called Fusilade Forte. We do have Fusilade II Herbicide, but this will kill your buffalo grass as it is a nonselective grass killer. Unfortunately, we do not have a product that is labeled to selectively kill couchgrass and not harm buffalo grass. Your best option would be to use a glyphosate based product like RoundUp QuikPro to spot treat then reseed/sod the buffalo in those areas.
It would depend on the type of grass you are trying to control. Per the product label: Best control of susceptible grasses is obtained when Fusilade II Turf and Ornamental Herbicide is applied to actively growing grasses before they exceed the listed growth stages shown on this label. Refer to the grass weed table for specific directions on weed growth stages outlined in Table 5 – Annual and Perennial Grass, found on page 32 of the label.
Application to grasses which have tillered, formed seed heads, or exceeded listed growth stages may require additional treatment.
No, Fusilade II Herbicide does not control broadleaf weeds or sedges. We would recommend a product like SedgeHammer Herbicide. It is labeled to kill nutsedge without injury to most, if not all, warm and cool season grasses. We do recommend reading over the label to ensure it’s labeled for your type of turfgrass.
You should wait 24 hours after applying Fusilade II Herbicide to water the lawn. Be aware Fusilade II Herbicide is only labeled to be used on Tall Fescue when treating for bermudagrass only. It is not labeled to be used on fine fescue.
Fusilade II Herbicide can be re-applied every 28-30 days. Please see the product label for complete application instructions.
Fusilade II Herbicide is not labeled to be used around edible vegetation. If treated, blueberries should be discarded and not consumed. Please let us know what you are targeting for an alternate recommendation.
Fusilade II Herbicide is mixed at 0.75 fl oz with 0.5 fl oz of surfactant to one gallon of water for spot application. The label does state the rate for blanket treatment at 3-6 fl oz per acre.
Fusilade II Herbicide is labeled to remove bermudagrass from zoysia when used as directed on the product label. Apply 0.07-0.14 oz/1000 sq. ft. (3-6 oz./A) along with 0.25% v/v (1/2 pt./25 gals.) of a nonionic surfactant. Application should be made every 28 days when the grass weeds are actively growing.
Fusilade II Herbicide does list a few gazania species on the label as tolerable.
Fusilade II Herbicide will not control zoysia. For grass in planters you can use an Over The Top grass killer.
The Fusilade II Herbicide label does not specifically list muhly as a tolerant plant that it can be used on. We would recommend contacting the manufacturer for more information. Syngenta can be reached at 1-866-796-4368.
Fusilade II can be used to get rid of Bermuda grass in tall fescue. You will also need to add a nonionic surfactant for best results. Please be advised that Bermuda grass is extremely difficult to control and you will likely need to make several applications.
Yes, Fusilade is a popular choice for this application. Per the product label, you can apply Fusilade II Herbicide in spring and fall during transition to control Bermudagrass in Fescue. You do not want to spray in the summer because the Fescue will be very sensitive during this time and is likely to be injured. Bermudagrass is very difficult to control selectively in other turfgrasses, so it can take many applications overall several seasons to accomplish this. Please refer to the product label for complete application instructions.
Fusilade II Herbicide can be applied to established Asiatic and Star Jasmine per the product label.
Fusilade II Herbicide is labeled for 2 types of bamboo. It can be used for Heavenly Bamboo and/or Phyllostachys, Golden bamboo. This product is a systemic herbicide which will move into the rhizomes. RoundUp QuikPro is typically the recommendation for controlling bamboo. You will be required to cut the bamboo down to a short stump. Then, you will apply the Round Up QuickPro. It can take several applications to achieve the desired results.
Fusilade II Herbicide is a grassy weed control herbicide, so it is not safe for use around most types of grasses. Since Kurapia is not listed as tolerant on the product label, we would not recommend using the Fusilade II Herbicide on this groundcover. If you are going to test it for tolerance, we would recommend testing a small area first. You may also want to check with your local Cooperative Extension office for assistance with what herbicides it may be able to tolerate. Since this is a newer type of groundcover, it probably will take some time before it is listed on herbicide labels.
Per the manufacturer, Fusilade II has not been tested on Kangaroo Paw, so we cannot guarantee that it would not harm the plant. If you would like to try this product, you may test it on a small area to see if it causes damage. If it does not cause damage within 14 days of the application, you may treat a larger area.
