Product Overview

Pramitol 25E is a non-selective pre and post-emergent bare-ground herbicide concentrate popular for industrial and commercial applications.

Dilute in water or oil and apply as a foliar application, before construction, or in or under asphalt to control johnson grass, bindweed, wild carrot, and other hard to kill weeds and grasses.

Pramitol is ideal for use around buildings, storage areas, roadways, airports, highway medians, lumberyards, pipelines, fences, recreational areas, and similar areas where total weed and grass control is needed.

Details

Pramitol 25E herbicide is a non-selective bare-ground herbicide concentrate popular for industrial and commercial applications. Apply before or up to three months after weed emergence, and one Pramitol application will prevent weed growth for a year or more. Dilute in water or oil and apply as a foliar application, before construction, or in or under asphalt to control johnson grass, bindweed, wild carrot, and other hard to kill weeds and grasses. (Pramitol 25E will not control woody vegetation.) Pramitol is ideal for use around buildings, storage areas, roadways, airports, highway medians, lumberyards, pipelines, fences, recreational areas, and similar areas where total weed and grass control is needed.

Much of the effectiveness of Pramitol is dependent on rainfall to move into the root zone. Poor weed control may result from very dry soil conditions or lack of sufficient rainfall. Use Pramitol only in areas where complete control of vegetation is desired, since this product may affect desirable plants, grasses, or shrubs. Use 5-10 gallons of Pramitol 25E per acre, depending on application: use higher rates in heavier soils, where weed growth is heavy, where rainfall is heavy, and in regions with a long growing season.

Pramitol may also be applied to even ground just before laying asphalt, or it may be mixed with cutback asphalts for weed control in areas being stabilized, such as highway medians, fences, guard rails, and shoulders, or for cracked asphalt surfaces being resurfaced. See product label for complete application recommendations.

    Great Stuff

    By Ya on 08/02/2011

    I use Pramitol on stubborn areas that are hard to reach with lawn equipment. It works amazingly well but you must be very careful. I usually dilute the Pramitol and use a spray bottle; however, this year we had much larger areas that needed to be taken care of. My brother-in-law did not read the directions and tried to use a styrofoam cup to pour the Pramitol into the sprayer. The cup promptly disintegrated. When he did get the Pramitol into the sprayer and diluted - he neglected to take the wind into account and some of my roses and ground cover were also affected. The roses are recovering since it was just some leaves; however, my ground cover is toast. The reason I only gave it a 4 rating is because it did not touch the "decorator" grasses that the previous owner planted and I am still having to try to pull it from between the stones, out of the driveway, etc. I even tried straight Pramitol watered in to those areas to no avail.

    DID NOT WORK

    By Karen on 07/03/2011

    Verified Purchase

    The product arrived very quickly. I follow the directions to the letter however, the product did not work as promised. It failed to kill the weeds at the root and very few leaves/folliage turned brown. I would not recommend this product.

    Satisfied User

    By John on 05/30/2014

    We had many mullen weeds throughout the gravel on our property in Montana which looked unsightly. We sprayed the mullen weeds as well as the many other weeds in the area as soon as the product arrived. Not a weed in sight! Great product, I would recommend it to anyone for any type of weed.

    Pramitol 25E - Gallon

    By A on 04/20/2012

    I have been using Pramitol for several years. It truly does what it says. Buying by the gallon is not only more convenient, it is the best deal available. I am very happy to have run across this deal. Do yourself a favor----buy it!!!!

Q
Can I have a raised garden after putting down Pramitol 25E Herbicide?

I have a green house with raised beds also raised beds outside the green house. Can I use pramitol to kill ground under beds?

A

The Pramitol 25E has such a long soil residual that you can't really predict how far it may move so would not be advised to apply around anything desirable nor around edibles.

Q
Will Pramitol 25E Herbicide kill small trees in wooded area?
A

No, Pramitol 25E will not control woody vegetation such as small trees, brush, or woody vines. We do carry many products to use for stump treatments, including Fertilome Brush and Stump Killer and Crossbow Herbicide.

Q
Can you pull dead grasses killed by Pramitol or will stop the chemical from working in the ground?

I have sprayed a gravel driveway and want to put more gravel down. I'd like to pull up some of the dead grass that was treated with Pramitol but wonder if pulling up the roots will stop the action in the ground or if it has been in the soil long enough to still work? It's been over a week and we've had plenty of rain.

A

After applying Pramitol 25E Herbicide, it is recommended to pull dead weeds/grasses once they have completely died. Pulling the dead weeds does not affect the residual as the residual is in the soil itself and not the weeds.

Q
Will Pramitol be harmful to cemetery headstones and monuments?

I

Q
How long does it take to kick in

The spray on the rocks we did it 2 days ago an haven't seen nothing

A
The Pramitol needs to be mixed at the rate of 8 ounces per each gallon of water at the lowest dilution and can be used up to 32 ounces per gallon for harder to kill brush, according to the product label. Time of plant death will depend on how much product is absorbed through the root system, if it is irrigated after application, and if the plant is under any stress to cause it to not absorb the product as quickly. It could be days or weeks before complete death is visible in the weeds you are treating.

Q
How far out from my well that is 60ft + deep and enclosed in a pump house and well case within a 4ft deep pit does applications of Pramitol 25E Herbicide need to be?

The well pit has a concrete floor and concrete walls around it. With this deep of a well and this protection around the well case, do I need to keep the spraying of Pramitol 25E away from it?

A

Yes, applications of Pramitol 25E Herbicide still need to be kept atleast 10ft away from wells/cisterns as per the product label, “applications around a cistern or well may result in contamination of drinking water or groundwater.” 

The manufacturer does not make any allowances on the product label for the style or build of the well therefore for further information, we would recommend contacting Control Solutions directly at 800-242-5562.

Q
Will Pramitol 25E Herbicide kill water hemp and honeysuckle?
A

Pramitol 25E Herbicide is a soil sterilizer/vegetation management concentrate. This product is labeled for waterhemp but not for honeysuckle. Honeysuckle often is killed best by products containing Triclopyr since its in the woody vine family and that ingredient works best on those type of plants. 

Please keep in mind, Pramitol 25E is a bare ground herbicide and will last for up to a year in the soil to keep new plants from emerging. This herbicide is very very slow to kill existing plants, so most customers who are looking for a long term bare ground treatment will mix Roundup for faster burn down of the existing weeds and grass.

Q
How soon is Pramitol 25E Herbicide rainfast after spraying weeds on a paver driveway?

I have St Augustine grass growing around the paved driveway that I don't want to kill. Will an application of Pramitol 25E on the driveway affect the St Augustine? (Aside from over spray or accidental spray)

A

Pramitol 25E Herbicide becomes rainfast in about 4-6 hours. Since this product is a  soil sterilant, it will kill any desirable plants, trees, shrubs, and turfgrass near the treated areas. It is recommended to avoid applications on slopes or grades where there is a risk the chemical would come into contact with roots or desirable grass areas.

Q
Is Pramitol 25E Herbicide safe to use when installing an asphalt driveway on a slope?

My Contractor said he sprays Pramitol and Roundup before paving. I live on a download slope and have many mature trees along this asphalt millings road I would like to have paved with asphalt. I am worried about runoff to my yard and mature trees. This road is also 5 feet from my well head. If my road already has millings and more crusher run added to base, would less Pramitol run off? It's not being applied on top .

A

Per the product label, do not use Pramitol 25E to sloped areas where desirable vegetation or nearby water bodies may be located downhill of the application area, since injury to desirable plants and other vegetation may result
