Crossbow Herbicide is a vegetation management product which means it is not very selective, it will kill almost anything. Although it will not harm a tree when used at recommended levels if it gets on the base of the tree, it will harm a tree if you spray Crossbow on the foliage. The required spray volume will increase substantially if the brush exceeds 5 feet in height. Brush over 8 feet tall is difficult to treat efficiently. Large brush or trees may be controlled better by basal or mechanical methods.
Crossbow Herbicide should not harm established trees but may damage young trees if applied directly to them. To avoid injury, do not apply directly on or within the drip line of smaller trees.
