    Q
    What Hi-Yield post-emergence grass herbicide should I use with Triclopyr Ester to improve its effectiveness?
    Bermudagrass shoots from my neighbor's weed infested lawn always creep into my yard. What post-emergent herbicide do you recommend I mix with Triclopyr Ester to improve its effectiveness? Red Fescue lawn and Kentucky Bluegrass
    A

    Triclopyr Ester is not labeled to control Bermuda grass in red fescue so we cannot recommend it for this use.  It can be used in perennial bluegrass for it though.

    Bayer Bermuda Grass Control helps to rid your lawn of Bermuda grass and crab grass without harming your fescue or Kentucky bluegrass. This product does not harm lawns when used as directed and can withstand rain one hour after application. We want to be clear that bermuda can be suppressed, but it is VERY difficult to kill completely. It will take multiple treatments to finally kill it.  It is a ready to use product so should not be mixed with anything.

    The other option for you is to spray glyphosate product such as Gly Pho-Sel Pro or Ranger Pro on the bermuda when it is green in early August, wait three weeks to see if any bermuda survives and spray again by early September if needed and then re-seed the spots with fescue in mid-September

    Q
    How many teapoons of Hi-Yield Triclopyr Ester Ultra do I add to a gallon of water?

    Q
    Can I kill a banyan tree with Hi-Yield Triclopyr Ester Ultra?
    It is a huge tree.
    A

    We have been unable to find any articles that list that triclopyr can be used for stump treatment of banyan trees specifically. A typical stump treatment would involve first cutting down the tree, and then treating the fresh cut stump by brushing on an herbicide such as Fertilome Brush Killer and Stump Killer rather than the Hi-Yield Triclopyr Ester Ultra. This article suggest burning the stump after creating a trench around the base and roots, however, we recommend checking with your local Department of Agriculture as to what is allowed in your area regarding burning. Either way, the tree would first have to be cut down before herbicides or other techniques could effectively prevent regrowth.

    Q
    Does mixing liquid soap help Hi-Yield Triclopyr Ester Ultra adhere to weeds?
    A

    Dish soap could interfere with the chemical process and prevent herbicides from doing their job. Hi-Yield Triclopyr Ester Ultra is applied at 3/8 - 3/4 oz. (2.25-4.5 teaspoons) per gallon of water per 1,000 sq. ft. (8 - 16 oz. per acre). See label for complete application instructions. It is recommended to add a non-ionic surfactant for best results but is not required per label instructions.

    Q
    Will Hi-Yield Triclopyr Ester kill horsetail?
    A

    Hi-Yield Triclopyr Ester is not labeled for horsetail.  We would suggest using something like Diquat instead.  Keep in mind that horsetail is very hard to control and it can be tough to properly penetrate through the plant. When using the Diquat you will need to mix it at the rate of 2-4 oz per gallon of water and mix it with an 80% nonionic surfactant.
