Pramitol 25E Herbicide - Questions & Answers

You could potentially use a hose-end sprayer to apply Pramitol 25E if you can correctly calibrate your sprayer and avoid any potential contact or runoff to any desirable plants. For susceptible perennial grasses, you would use 12 - 18 oz per 1,000 square feet in sufficient water. For hard-to-kill perennial weeds and grasses, you would use 22 - 29.4 oz. per 1,000 sq ft. It is most important to use the correct amount of herbicide for the area you are treating and then using sufficient water or rainfall to irrigate it into the soil than it is to use a specific amount per gallon of water. Keep in mind that Pramitol 25E is generally noncorrosive to equipment, but may cause swelling or more rapid deterioration of hoses and fittings containing natural rubber. Please refer to the product label for complete application instructions.

We are not awareof anything that would cause Pramitol 25E to damage pipes in the ground when used as directed.  Unfortunately, we do not know where you can purchase the product locally, but we are able to ship it to Hawaii.

Pramitol 25E is a total vegetation killer and will eliminate anything growing where you spray it. This will keep anything new from growing in the treated areas for at least 1 year. Caution should be used during application as some leaching in the soil could occur and destroy nearby desirable vegetation and turf. Pramitol is mixed at the rate of 8 ounces per each gallon of water at the lowest dilution, up to 32 ounces per gallon for harder to kill brush. The time it takes for plant death to occur will depend on how much product is absorbed through the root system, whether or not rainfall or irrigation occurs after application, and plant stress. It can take days to weeks before complete death is visible.  Children should be kept out of the treated area during application but can safely return as soon as everything is fully dry.  Please see the product label for complete application directions.

 

 

 

When using Pramitol 25E it would depend on the slope of the surface, and the weather conditions you are applying. You want to apply this product in cooler times of the day with less wind. On flat turfgrass areas, you would probably be safe to spray at least 2 feet away. If there is a slope, then you would need to account for possible runoff where there my be desirable plants.

We would not recommend Pramitol 25E on its own to control poison ivy since Pramitol will not control woody vines or brush. You could add a glyphosate product such as Ranger Pro to control poison ivy. You can also browse our other Poison Ivy Control products here.

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.

Unfortunately, Pramitol 25E is not labeled to be used around any edibles. We would recommend a product like Monterey Vegetable & Ornamental Weeder . This would be labeled for use in a vegetable garden and would provide weed control for five months.

Pramitol 25E will not control brush, woody vegetation, or trees. You could still apply this in the area for grassy and broadleaf plants, however you would need to use a more appropriate product for the brush such as Crossbow Herbicide.

We would advise to allow 1-2 hours to let the Pramitol dry sufficiently before releasing any animals back into the treated area. Keep in mind that Pramitol shoud not be used in any grazing areas.

Pramitol 25E could harm mature trees if applied inside the drip line of desirable trees.  To avoid harm apply only outside the drip line of the mature trees.

You can apply Pramitol 25E before or up to three months after weed emergence. Pramitol 25E is a total vegetation killing product and will eliminate anything growing where you spray it and will keep anything new from growing in the treated areas for up to 1 year.

Pramitol 25E works as both a post-emergent and a pre-emergent herbicide, so it will both affect existing plants and prevent new plants from growing. If there is a lot of dying vegetation in an area where you want to apply Pramitol, be sure to use plenty of water to carry the active ingredient into the soil. Pramitol will not be absorbed into plants that are already dead or dying from other herbicides. Pramitol will effectively prevent new plant growth for up to 12 months when applied according to the product label. Pramitol will not kill existing woody vegetation. If you have further questions, you may reach our Customer Service at 866-581-7378 M-F 9a-5p EST.

We would recommend to use a high volume of water when applying Pramitol 25E, or to water in within 24 hours. Pramitol is a total vegetation killing product and will eliminate anything growing where you spray it. The Pramitol will keep anything new from growing in the treated areas for up to 1 year. Caution should be used during application as some leaching in the soil could occur and destroy nearby desirable vegetation and turfs. 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. Time of plant death will depend on how much product is absorbed through the root system, if it is irrigate 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. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Yes you can absolutely mix RoundUp and Pramitol to apply at the same time. Keep in mind, Pramitol is not just a pre-emergent but also a post emergent product. Normally customers who do not see burn down or kill of existing weeds, or long term prevention of new ones are due to 1 of two factors. Either not enough water was used intially during application to allow proper absorbtion and penetration into the soil to create a solid barrier, or the application was done after the weeds/grasses you are trying to kill had already begun to go dormant. Even if they havent died out over the winter, they are still in a dormant faze so they are not going to suck up the product or really anything for that matter to be affected by it. Same thing will apply with the RoundUP as well. In order for it to work the weeds must be in an actively growing state with steady soil (not air) temperatures of 65 degrees or higher for at least a week straight.
