    Q
    Do you have an equivalent product(s) to MCPA Ester and Vanquish?
    Tru Green used MCPA Ester plus Vanquish on my St Augustine lawn.
    A

    Both Dicamba and MCPA are active ingredients found in many products, however many of these may cause damage to St. Augustine grass. A good choice that contains both would be Monterey Spurge Power, which can be used as spot treatment on St. Augustine lawns since it may cause some discoloration. Be sure to read and follow the product label to be sure that it will suit your needs. Another option is Speedzone Southern Herbicide, which also contains two additional active ingredients and is a formula that may be more gentle on your turf, or Trimec Southern Broadleaf Hervbicide. Be sure that your target weeds are on the product label of the herbicide that you choose to apply.

    Q
    I live in Phx
    under 85'. Is that the case with Spurge Power? Thank you
    A
    You would want to apply Spurge Power when soil temps are not over 85 degrees.  This is because plants that are heat stressed will not absorb the product as readily so it would not work very well.  If you can apply it later in the day when temps could be closer to the recommended temp you could do so.

    Want to kill wild violets. What is the optimum temp for best results? do plants need to be actively growing? Zone 6 b
    A
    Spurge Power is a post emergent to be applied to actively growing weeds like Wild Violet. You would want to apply when soil temps reach 55 degrees and not over 85 degrees. Please wait 4 or more weeks after application to replant.

    Q
    Will Spurge power kill vetch? White oak trees?
    A
    Spurge Power is labeled to control vetch in lawns.  If the tree is established, then the Spurge Power should have no effect on the tree. You should try to limit the exposure to the tree and only directly treat the vegetation you are trying to get rid of.

    Q
    I have spurge in Tiff bermuda, Will Spurge Power hurt the grass?
    A
    Spurge Power is designed to be used in warm and cool season grasses including Bermuda. When treating warm season lawn that is completely dormant, the higher rates may be used. When treating warm season lawn that is actively growing, use a lower rate. Avoid applications to warm season lawn during transition from dormancy to green-up or green-up to dormancy. Let us know if you have any other questions.
