    Q
    Will Fusilade II kill bittercress, a weed blooming with 0.5 inch white crosses, now. It's raging in my fescue
    My only I.D. of this weed is a single web photo at www.virginiagreenlawncare.com -- labeled "Bittercress". I'm in Chattanooga, TN. I sprayed it with Fertilome Weed Out with Q 3 weeks ago -- ineffective. It's raging in my fescue.
    A
    Fusillade II is not labeled for bittercress. We would recommend using Dismiss Turf Herbicide. It is safe to use in fescue grass for bittercress. The application rate is .092-0.275 fl. oz. per 1000 square feet. This will generally be used in about a gallon of water.

    Q
    Is Fusilade II safe to use on a buffalo grass lawn?
    Will this kill buffalo grass? I want to kill the bermuda grass in our buffalo grass lawn. I also need to get rid of crabgrass.
    A
    Fusilade II Herbicide is not labeled to be used on buffalo grass. We would recommend contacting your local cooperative extension office to see what you can use in your buffalograss to kill bermudagrass. Most of the products that we carry can be used on both types of turf so this will not be helpful to you.

  • Asked by Harold from Bakersfield, Ca
    05/21/2015
    Q
    I want kill Bermuda in el toro zoysia. Am I to apply more than once, and how long between applications?
    The directions look to be a mix of 2.5 oz to 3.0 oz per acre and add a surfactant, but not sure of amount. Also, it is suggested to apply about June 1st. I live in Bakersfield, CA. Am I to apply more than once, and how long between applications?
    A

    Fusilade II Herbicide can be used to remove Bermuda grass from zoysia grass when used at reduced rates. Applications should be made around June 1st per 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.

    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.

    Usage chart for spot treatments:

    1 gallon water  +   .75 fl oz of Fusilade  +   .5 oz surfactant

    10 gallons water   +   6.5 fl oz Fusilade   +   3 oz surfactant

    25 gallons water   +   1 pint Fusilade  +   .5 pint surfactant

    50 gallon water   +    1 qt Fusilade   +   1 pint surfactant

    Q
    Do I need to use a surfactant if I use Fusilade?
    I live in Utah, and have lots of grass growing in and amongst many expensive plants, ground covers, etc. Must I use a surfactant, or can I just mix Fusilade with water and spray, also, what amount of Fusilade should I use per gallon?
    A
    Fusilade Herbicide can be mixed with a surfactant such as Non-Ionic Surfactant for Herbicides to help the product work more effectively and it is recommended by the manufacturer.

    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. The higher rates may result in temporary discoloration of the desirable turf with recovery in 10-14 days. Do not apply to desirable turf which is under stress. For best results, make applications in spring and fall and avoid treatments during July and August.
    Complete control of undesirable grass may take 1-2 growing seasons.

    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.
