    Q
    Will MSM Turf harm the post oak trees in my yard if I spray the turf for bahia?
    A

     There is a danger if using MSM Turf Herbicide around oak trees, so you want to be sure that you do not use MSM under any oak tree canopies: be sure to stay outside the drip line of these trees and do not spray if there is wind or other risk of drift to oak trees. Keep in mind that MSM can have a long soil residual, so you should not apply this near desirable trees or ornamental plants or where you intend to plant new trees or shrubs within 1 year and new bedding plants within 2 years. Please refer to the product label for complete application instructions.

    Q
    Controlling Italian Arum
    At the recommendation of my extension office, I purchased this product to be used in my efforts to control Italian Arum, but there is no suggested use rate for that plant in the instructions. From my reading on this plant, metsulfuron-methyl (MSM) by itself will not be effective. Some researched-based literature reports some success with a tank mix of MSM, glyphosate and a surfactant to achieve control. I'm using a 1-gallon tank, as it is a small patch. Can you advise on the correct dosage and correct method for mixing with glyphosate and a surfactant?
    A

    We do apologize but since this is an off label usage of MSM Turf Herbicide  we cannot advise of rates that would be effective.  You may try reaching out to the manufacturer directly for advice, they can be reached at (800) 242-5562.

    Q
    Is MSM Turf Herbicide safe to use around chickens?
    Can I use Manor on my turf if I have chickens?

    The chickens would need to be removed from the area during the treatment and until the application has completely dried. It should be safe for the chickens to return to this area as long as the manufacturer's product label instructions are followed.

    Q
    Will MSM Turf Herbicide kill Blackberry, Black Raspberry, Red Raspberry?
    Will MSM kill various thorny berry brushes in Mid Summer? I have multiple berry brush including Blackberry, Black Raspberry, Red Raspberry and Dewberry fields.
    A

    MSM Turf Herbicide is not labeled to target any berries and is most geared towards controlling broadleaf and grassy weeds, however if the MSM were to get too close to the plants or its root systems it could definitely harm them. If you need something to kill berry bushes we would recommend spraying them directly with a product like Crossbow

  • Asked by Steven from Homosassa, Florida

    Q
    Can I mix Image and MSM for an application on a Saint Augustine Lawn in Florida?
    I want to control nutsedge and spurge.
    A

    The product label of MSM does not mention that MSM and Image have been tested for tank mixes.  It does state: "Tank mixes with other registered herbicides and MSM Turf Herbicide should be tested for compatibility before full scale mixing. Use mechanical or bypass agitation to thoroughly mix the spray suspension. It is not necessary to premix this product with water in a separate container prior to adding it to the spray tank. This product should always be added to the tank first, before any other herbicides or adjuvants." Keep in mind that MSM has extremely low application rates and is very difficult to apply to small areas.

    A great option to treat both nutsedge and spurge would be a sulfentrazone product such as Sulfentrazone 4SC. This product is safe on most turfgrasses and has very low use rates.
