If you are planning to use a product like Crossbow Herbicide you would typically want a late summer/early fall application for some of the best results with a post-emergent heribicide. Wild carrot can be difficult to completely get rid of due to their seed cycle, so dilligence and product rotation will be needed, if possible. I have linked for you below a really helpful guide on Wild Carrot and it goes over its life cycle, timing and ingredient recommendations from Michigan State University through their tests and what they found successfull. https://archive.lib.msu.edu/DMC/Ag.

We have glory bower that is sending out shoots everywhere and trying to get rid of it entirely. Will crossbow work or is there a better product?

A

Crossbow Herbicide should kill Glory Bower as it is a woody plant. We cannot gurantee it however because it has not been tested for it. It may be best to spot treat the Shoots with Round up.
