Per manufacturer: Fusilade II works best when applied to the green foliage of actively growing grassy weeds. Cool season turfgrass sod has the best chance of success when laid on a prepared bare soil area, so there shouldn’t be any plant cover present, weeds or turf.

There would be no weed control benefit to applying Fusilade II to bare soil prior to sodding.
