    Q
    Can Hi Yield 2-4 D be used to kill clover in Myrtle ground cover?
    Have used Round Up (75% concentration) and had limited damage to Myrtle.
    A

    Hi-Yield 2, 4-D Selective Weed Killer  is not labeled to safely be applied to Myrtle ground cover, so we cannot recommend it. Spot treating with a glyphosate product such as RoundUp QuikPro would be the best and safest option.

    Q
    How can I kill most broadleafs but spare the White Dutch Clover in my field?
    I am wanting to leave the WDC for the honey bees to forage on. Wondering how the WDC seed companies manage the weeds i their fields.
    A

    Herbicides such as Hi-Yield 2,4-D that will kill most broadleaf weeds will also kill existing clover. We would recommend just spot treating the areas with undesirable plants and then reseeding with your clover as needed.

    Q
    Will Hi-Yield 2,4-D kill crabgrass in Florida?
    A

    Hi-Yield 2,4-D is mainly labeled for broadleaf weeds and will not treat crabgrass.  It would be best to know what kind of desirable turf grass you have in the area that needs to be treated, as many of the herbicides that are labeled for crabgrass may also damage several types of turf grass that are common in your area.  Please take a look at our Crabgrass Control Guide for more information on treating and preventing this weed.

    Q
    Will Hi-Yield 2, 4-D Selective Weed Killer kill the centipede grass?
    If not, do you know of a product that will kill centipede grass and not kill the rest of my red fescue lawn?
    A

    Hi-Yield 2, 4-D Selective Weed Killer is a selective, post-emergent herbicide concentrate which controls dozens of broadleaf weeds and other noxious plants susceptible to its active ingredient. It will not kill grasses such as centipede. It is hard to find a product that will kill Centipede in Red Fescue. You could spot treat with Roundup. Another option, would be to contact you Cooperative Extension Office and speak with the Master Gardener.

  • Asked by Kevin from Des Moines, Ia
    05/04/2018
    Q
    My son sprayed for dandelions without mixing concentrate with water. What should I do?
    A

    Unfortuntely, there is not much you can do after the product has been sprayed except to wait. You will want to keep a close eye on the turf where the product was used since the straight 2,4-D product could easily damage it. You may need to overseed if there are spots where the turf dies out. We would recommend waiting right now and being sure to fertilize and water the lawn so that there is not any other unecessary stress on it. Be sure to read and follow the product label when using this or any other herbicides.
