    Review by Sara may not be correct!

    By Anonymous on 08/26/2013

    I read the review by Sara, who stated that the % of active ingredient was different in the quart and gallon sizes. I was curious, so I emailed Do My Own and asked them. According to Do My Own, there is NO difference in % active ingredient in the quart and gallon sizes.

    Hi-Yield 2, 4-D Selective Weed Killer

    By Sara on 07/18/2011

    The buyer of the gallon size should be aware that the percentage of 2, 4-D is much less than in the quart size.

    Works without killing my grass

    By Beth on 04/22/2012

    I ordered 2,4-D and had my order is like two days. However when I opened it, it was a bug control product. I called customer service and mailed me another gallon in the next two days. I received a return postage for the incorrect product - so just wanted to say the customer service was outstanding. The product works good, it doesn't harm the grass. I have applied twice to the area. The weather has been cooler than normal and I am wondering if it was warmer, if the results would have been faster.

    hi-yield 2, 4-d

    By Eve on 09/26/2012

    This product is amazing! It kills all weeds without killing grass. One should read the direction for proper use for safety. If you are looking for a product to control, or eliminate weeds in your grass, this is your product.

    Killing Wild Strawberry

    By George on 05/13/2012

    I used the 2, 4-D in a pump sprayer to allow me to be more precise in getting the poison onto the weeds. A hose sprayer would have been less selective. It worked as advertised. I used 1 tablespoon per cup of water.

    Finally

    By Cindy on 06/19/2014

    After years of trying to get rid of creeping charley from our 1/2 acre lawn my brother suggested your company's products. This product rocks and the weeds are gone from the areas we sprayed and we are very pleased with this product. I have recommended it to several people. Thank You

    It works!

    By Linda on 06/19/2014

    Verified Purchase

    We recently moved into a home we remodeled. The yard was neglected and overrun with weeds and overgrowth. We were able to get the yard in order - all except the horsetails!! After pulling and pulling and pulling again, nothing would touch these weeds - even Round Up. Then I found this product thru a web search. It works!!

    Pesky Weeds

    By Steve on 05/09/2013

    Verified Purchase

    This product seems to get rid of most of the basic weed groups. There are a few weeds in my yard that require a specialized product. Nut grass, etc., but this product works well. Also, DoMyOwnPestControl has great prices and fantastic shipping. Will be purchasing from them again as needed.

    Hi Yield 2 is very effective

    By William on 05/16/2014

    Hi Yield 2 is very effective against all the weeds here in our yard in Virginia. However, if you also have crabgrass, you can use Drive XLR8 to kill them. I ended up using 1 gallon per 1/3 acre based on dispensing from an Ortho dial sprayer

    Great product, fast shipment. The weed killer worked, however, it took many more applications than suggested.

    Killing Lake Weed

    By Ken on 09/14/2014

    Most effective and least expensive method of killing millfoil and lilly pads that I have found. Earlier this year I bought a 50lb box of 2-4-D pellets from another merchant ($330) and used the entire box on one area. (It didn't do the job). THIS gallon of 2-4-D concentrate praised here did the work and I still have 2/3 gallon left. The product is good, the merchant DMOPC is great. Already purchased and received my subsequent order for Wasp killing spray.

    Got rid of it

    By Art on 10/17/2012

    Verified Purchase

    Purchased 2,4-D to kill " COW " grass or also known as DALLAS grass. . In the past I just would dig those clumps up. However this year the Cow Grass overwhelmed me and decided the 2, 4-D approach. After several application the Weed Killer has done the trick. Even tough it did affect some of the surrounding Zoya grass it is the right way for me to control this WEED. The Zoya grass has since also started to grow back. Good reddens COW or DALLas grass.

    Great Ordering and Shipment, But "kill" Info Lacking

    By Larry on 09/16/2012

    Verified Purchase

    Ordering and shipping through this company is the best I have ever experienced. However, the information that came with the product I ordered (Hi-Yield 2, 4-D weed killer) included absolutely no indication when "kill" results should be seen. Following the directions with great care, I hit the weeds (Rush Skeleton Weed) five days ago. So far there is no indication of results.

    Every Homeowner Needs This Herbicide

    By Justin on 06/20/2017

    Verified Purchase

    This is like the bread and butter of herbicides. Just like every homeowner needs RoundUP, this is the second most important product any homeowner (with a lawn) should not be without. Realistically speaking, this stuff is anywhere from alright to absolutely amazing depending upon the weed and the weather. ALWAYS follow the label. This year when it got hot (to the upper limits of the label) it merely worked faster frying the weeds faster than even RoundUp would have. The net result was that it just fried the weeds sprayed even faster. The best thing is that it does NOT harm centipede grass at proper mix rates. I tried it on a test plot of St. Augustine and would NOT recommend this on that though. ALWAYS try any new product in an inconspicuous area. I was going to give it a five except a shrub at least 8' away from any areas sprayed shows herbicide damage of auxin herbicide injury (leaves curling). That said it is recovering nicely.

    Canadian thistle killer

    By Alicia on 10/09/2020

    We bought this product to kill the Canadian thistle in the yard. It won't even kill dandelions, much less Canadian thistle. My husband used the strength they recommended and it did not work. One week later he tried again with a little stronger solution and still nothing. They shouldn't advertise that it kills Canadian thistle or dandelions because it does not. When he called the company to complain about the product they tried to blame him by saying he had not measured it correctly and that the product had become resistant to it.

    WANTED A HIGHER CONTENT OF 2, 4-D

    By Cornpatchguy on 05/29/2017

    Didn't live up to my expectations of killing hard to kill lawn weeds. Gonna take another or maybe even two more sprays to finish the job. I believe the Speedzone worked better, went with this brand because it was a larger container.

    Am not impressed with this product

    By Dennis on 08/20/2015

    2-4 D was recommended to me by someone in the landscaping business to get rid of the multitude of weeds that infest my lawn. I applied it last week with very little success. Although it did kill some of the weeds, it was no where near as effective as I thought it would be

    Initial results but weeds quickly returned

    By Jim on 06/10/2015

    Verified Purchase

    Applied according to label and got some initial results. One month later, most broadleaf weeds are back, including white clover - which is usually an easy kill.
