    Q
    Will Fusilade II Herbicide kill bermudagrass that has spread from our lawn into the flower beds?
    A

    Fusilade II when used with a Non Ionic Surfactant kills grassy weeds such as bermudagrass in landscape beds, flower beds, and around ornamentals. This would also kill the bermudagrass lawn so precautions should be taken to avoid any overspray or drift to nearby turf.

    Bermudagrass is extremely difficult to eliminate and will require repeat applications and could take multiple seasons to control.

    Q
    Can Fusilade II Herbicide suppress or control zoysia in a cool season lawn?
    A

    Fusilade II Herbicide will not suppress or control zoysiagrass. Hi Yield Triclopyr Ester, or the ingredient Triclopyr in general, is a commonly used herbicide to kill bermuda and zoysia in a cool season lawn such as fescue.

    Ideally, zoysia is best controlled when it's in the transition state from dormant to green up, or green to dormant. Summer is when zoysia thrives so you will have a harder time controlling it during these months.

    Q
    After applying Fusilade II Herbicide to my Tall Fescue lawn to control bermudagrass, is it normal for the Tall Fescue to have stopped growing?
    I mixed 0.2 oz (1.2 teaspoons) in 1/2 gallon of water along with a Non Ionic Surfactant to sprayed over bermudagrass I'm wanting to kill. The Tall Fescue is green but has not grown even a 1/4 inch since and the bermuda is not dying still 2 weeks later.
    A

    Bermudagrass is extremely difficult to eliminate and will require several applications and most likely a few seasons. When using Fusilade II Herbicide to remove bermudagrass from Tall Fescue, a Fall application and Spring application is recommended. Fall applications should done in Sept/Oct when bermudagrass is preparing for doramancy and then again in early Spring (April/May) when the bermuda is transitioning out of dormancy. The rate for eliminating bermudagrass from Tall Fescue is 5-6 fl oz per acre in no less than 30 gallons of water/acre. This breaks down to to be 0.11 to 0.13 fl oz per ½ gallon of water per 1000 sq ft

    Any discoloration, slow down in growth or discoloration of Tall Fescue should recover within 2 weeks after the application. Please view page 12 of the product label for more information.

    Q
    How to remove the smell from Fusilade II Herbicide in our washing machine?
    our "unopened" Fusilade II somehow leaked a bit (1 tablespoon?) from the unopened container into some clothing. We washed it to remove the stink and now the entire washing machine smells. We did a separate load with baking soda and vinegar and it still reeks. We are scared we may need to get an entire new washing machine. Any suggestions how to remove this horrific smell from our washing machine??
    A

    We recommend reaching out directly to the manufacturer of Fusilade II Herbicide for advise on helping to rid your washing machine of the scent of the product.  Syngenta can be contacted by either calling 1-866-796-4368, or by visiting their website's contact page here.

    Q
    Can dawn dish soap be used as a surfactant with Fusilade II Herbicide? Is this an effective surfactant?
    A

    No, using Dawn Dish Soap in place of a Non Ionic Surfactant with Fusilade II Herbicide would not be recommended as this is off label usage and not advised per the manufacturer or DoMyOwn.com. The use of dish soap will also foam up in the tank sprayer and cause difficuties to apply the herbicide effectively.

    Q
    What can be used to kill wiregrass growing in my Tifway 419 Bermuda without injuring the turfgrass?
    A

    Since wiregrass is also a species of Bermudagrass, there is not a product available that would selectively remove it and not harm you Bermudagrass lawn.  In this case it would be best to very carefully spot treat the wiregrass with a non-selective herbicide like RoundUp QuikPro, and reseed the desirable Bermuda in those areas as soon as 14 days after an application.

    Q
    Can Fusilade II Herbicide be used to kill common bermudagrass in my Zoysia Sun and Shade mix turfgrass without injuring my lawn?
    A

    While Fusilade II Herbicide is labeled for removing Bermudagrass only in Tall Fescue and Zoysia lawns, it could be damaging to your sun and shade mix as it contains bluegrass, ryegrass, and fescue.

    Acclaim Extra can be used to suppress bermudagrass and should be applied when the bermudagrass is coming out of dormancy, green and beginning to grow. Repeat applications at 28 to 35 days for multiple applications will be needed for suppression of bermudagrass.

    Please revew the full product label for application rates and more information.

    Q
    Wil Fusilade II Herbicide kill centipede grass in my Kentucky Bluegrass lawn?
    A

    Fusilade II Herbicide is not labeled to be used in lawns unless targeting bermudagrass from fescue and zoysiagrass turfgrass. This product is primarly for treating grassy weeds in landscape beds, ornamentals, flowers and shrubs. 

     Unfortuanately, there is not anything specifically labeled to eradicate centipedegrass in cool seaons lawns however using a product like Triclopyr that is labeled safe for Kentucky Bluegrass and advised not to use on warm season turfgrass such as Centipede could help eradicate it.

    Q
    Will Fusilade II Herbicide kill Bermuda in a St Augustine and Centipede Lawn?
    A

    Fusilade II Herbicide can be used to treat bermudagrass in zoysia, tall fescue and fine fescue lawns only

    Unfortunately there is not a selective herbicide available that would kill the Bermuda without also harming the St. Augustine & Centipede since they are so closely related. It is recommended to spot treat the areas of bermudagrass with a non selective like Roundup QuickPro and then after 2 weeks resod or reseed the areas with St. Augustine or Centipede. 

    Updated Jan 2025:  Fusilade is not labeled to be used on St Augustine for bermuda grass control when tank mixed with Recognition Herbicide.  Following these instructions Recognition Herbicide 2(ee) Supplemental Label-St. Augustine
