Fusilade II Herbicide is applied at the following rate for spot applications- 25 gallons water + 1 pint Fusilade + .5 pint surfactant.
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. Keep in mind for herbicides the amount of water is not important. What is important is getting the correct amount of product, over the correct amount of area. Mark off 1000 sq/ft and fill your sprayer tank with only water. Spray as if you were covering the area with the herbicide. However many gallons it takes you to cover that area is how many gallons to mix the product with. Everyone's walking speed and how heavily they spray is different, which is why whether you use 2 gallons or 8 gallons of water to cover 1000 sq/ft, you are correct.
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.

Fusilade II and a quinclorac product separately on your zoysia, especially during the summer. Otherwise, we suggest testing a small area first if you are mixing other products along with Fusilade since this may cause extra sensitivity on the zoysia.

Over-spray Tall Fescue turfgrass: Application rate should be 5-6 fl oz/A. Application should be made during warm weather in early spring (April, May) when bermudagrass is breaking dormancy. This should be repeated in fall (September, October) when bermudagrass is preparing for dormancy. Applications during the hot months of summer should be avoided. Note: This application will show slight discoloration to desirable turfgrass. Tall Fescue turfgrass should recover within 10–14 days. Weather and cultural treatments can also affect applications. Use a minimum of 30 gallons of water per acre.

The product should only be used on turfgrass if you are trying to control grass weeds in labeled desirable turf.

Unfortunately, we are unable to offer advice of the possible effects if your animal consumes the treated grass.
Fusilade II Herbicide is only labeled to be used on Tall Fescue, Fine Fescue, and zoysia as directed, but it is not labeled for control of dallisgrass. We recommend hand pulling or digging the dallisgrass after rainfall or spot treating it with a non-selective herbicide such as Killzall Herbicide. You can then use a pre-emergent containing Dithiopyr in late winter and spring to prevent new dallisgrass. Dimension 2EW is a great choice for pre-emergent for dallisgrass.
