    Q
    Will MSM Turf Herbicide kill centipede?
    I mixed it as accurate as I could for spot treatment in a 4 gal sprayer. Well now it has been 3 weeks s d those spots look yellow and dead. The rest of the centipede that I didn't spray is thriving and green. I'm scared I killed my centipede. What do I do?
    A

    MSM Turf Herbicide is labeled for centipede grass, although some chlorosis or stunting of the turfgrass may occur following the application. Per the manufacturer, their recommended rate to use for spot applications is of 0.1 oz per 4 gallons of water, which can be easily measured with their measuring device provided.

    Q
    Is MSM Turf Herbicide safe around citrus trees?
    I've got Virginia button weed running rampant by my young citrus trees. Can I spray MSM Turf around them?
    A

    MSM Turf Herbicide is not labeled to be used around anything edible or around desirable trees or shrubs.  We would recommend using a non-selective product such as Avenger to carefully treat the weeds around your citrus trees.

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

    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.

  • 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.

    Q
    Why can't MSM Turf Herbicide be used on crabgrass?
    A

    MSM Turf Herbicide is no longer labeled for crabgrass control. We recommend Drive XLR8 Herbicide with Duo Stick Surfactant for post-emergent control of crabgrass on most common turfgrass types (this is not safe for centipede or St. Augustine).

  • Asked by Bryce from Florence, Sc
    03/09/2021
    Q
    If I spray 15 gallons per acre and use the amount of MSM Turf Herbicide on the label per acre, will that be correct?
    I have a 15 gallon sprayer and centipede grass.
    A

    MSM Turf Herbicide is labeled to be applied at water volumes of 20 to 80 gallons of water per acre and pressures of 25-35 psi, so using only 15 gallons of water would not give you adequate volume for that size of an area. On Centipedegrass, you can apply 0.25 - 0.5 oz of MSM Herbicide per Acre.

    Q
    Will MSM Turf Herbicide kill my Bermuda that is just starting to emerge?
    I'm trying to kill Hairy Bittercress in my Bermuda lawn but my Bermuda is just starting to grow due to the afternoon late winter temps being in the low 70s. I can see green blades starting to emerge from the old brown grass.
    A

    You can apply MSM during dormancy or after complete green-up of the Bermuda lawn in the spring.  You don’t want to apply any weed controls to the lawn during spring green-up since this is when the grass is in its most fragile state.
