    Q
    Is it safe for pets?
    I saw the answer that after this product is dry it is safe for pets. I kept pets off the yard for 24 hours. The lawn is completely dry but why do white dogs have a yellow stain from the product on them? Is that normal? Is that safe? Should I wait until the product is watered in before letting them back on?
    A

    Prodiamine 65 WDG is a water-dispersible granule that should be mixed with water and applied with a pump sprayer.  Weed control is most effective when Prodiamine 65WDG is activated by at least 0.5 inches of rainfall or irrigation or shallow incorporation (1 to 2 inches) before weed seeds germinate and within 14 days following application.  Yes, water the product in and then wait until your turf is completely dry before allowing pets onto the lawn.

    Q
    Will this product kill sand burrs?
    A

    Prodiamine 65 WDG (Generic Barricade) is not labeled for sandbur, and we cannot guarantee any results for this weed using this product. It is only a pre-emergent, used to prevent weeds from emerging. It will not kill anything that is actively growing.  Hi-Yield Weed and Grass Stopper with Dimension is a very popular pre-emergent herbicide for sandbur. Be sure to check the product label to be sure it is safe to use on your turfgrass. If you are trying to kill existing sandbur, you can browse our post-emergent herbicides for this weed here.

    Q
    Is Prodiamine 65 wdg a good choice for weeds that pop up in late spring and summer?
    I use RM43 or Roundup in weedeater areas and on unused portions of gravel driveways. Everything is killed and dies off but spurweed, crabgrass looking weeds, and several broadleaf weeds grow back in full force a few weeks after the killoff. Is this a good choice for late spring/summer pre-emergent? I realize now I need to use this late winter or early spring but since I'm beyond that what about this year?
    A

    Using the Prodiamine 65 WDG (Generic Barricade) should be fine to use for prevention as long as it's down at the right soil temps, and labeled safely to apply on your turf type. If there are no roots of any trees or other desirable plants nearby/within 5-10 feet of where the gravel is, he could use a soil sterilizer like TVC with roundup/rm43 to kill what's there and prevent more growth of anything for a while.

    Q
    Can I mix prodiamine 65 WDG in a 2-gallon sprayer with Celsius for emerging weeds?
    A

    Yes, you can mix a pre such as Prodiamine 65 WDG (Generic Barricade) with a post emergent such as Celsius WG Herbicide. We would recommend doing a jar test prior though to ensure they do not separate or have any other chemical reaction.

    Q
    I wanted to know what amount of prodiamine to apply to a gallon of water.
    A

    The first thing you need to know when using an herbicide such as Prodiamine 65 WDG is that the exact amount of water you dilute it with is not important. It is only important to make sure you are using the correct amount of product per 1,000 sq ft of lawn. Use too much and you risk damaging your lawn, use too little and you will not get adequate results. You will need to use 0.185-0.55 oz per 1,000 sq ft. To decide how much water you want to use, you should mark a 1,000 sq ft area, fill your sprayer with water ONLY, and start walking and spraying just as if you were doing the actual application of herbicide. When you are done walking and spraying the 1,000 sq ft area note how much water it took you to spray that area, and that is the amount you will want to mix 0.185-0.55 oz of product for each 1,000 sq ft area that needs to be treated.

    Yes, Prodiamine 65 WDG (Generic Barricade) is safe for pets as long as it is used as directed.  Pets do need to be kept out of the area while the product is being applied, but can be allowed to re-enter the area once the product is dry (usually within a few hours).

    Q
    Spurge overgrowth in St. Augustine grass...
    Our lawn is being taken over by spurge. What can we use to kill it and yet allow my dogs to walk on it, they live inside, but ???
    A

    Prodiamine 65 WDG (Generic Barricade) is only labeled to prevent spurge, it will not kill that which has already emerged. However, you can use Celsius WG Herbicide for existing spurge that has already emerged. Just keep your pets out of the area while applying & they may return once the product has dried. You will also want to consult with your extension for the appropriate time to apply a pre-emergent.

    Q
    Is Prodiamine 65 WDG effective on a gravel driveway? I don't want to endanger lawns and plants on either side.
    A

    Prodiamine 65 WDG would be fine to use on a gravel driveway but the granules are a yellow color therefore it may stain. It is a pre-emergent that can also be used around landscaped ornamentals. The best and longest-lasting pre-emergent herbicide to use around areas like a gravel driveway where you do not want any plants to grow would be a vegetation management product like TVC Total Vegetation Control. This product will prevent any plant growth in those areas for up to 1 year. Just be sure not to apply in a way that would run off or contact the roots of desirable plants/turf since this product last for so long. If you have existing weeds in the gravel areas, then you can use Roundup QuikPro to spot treat and kill any existing plants.

    Q
    Safe for Clover?
    Is is product safe to use on a white clover, Tall Fescue, & Annual Ryegrass lawn? I don't see Clover or ryegrass called out on the datasheet, so just want to double-check! Also is this effective on horseweed (Erigeron Canadensis) and/or Sandbur grass (Cenchrus Longispinus).
    A

    Prodiamine 65 WDG (Generic Barricade) does list perennial ryegrass and tall fescue as tolerable to applications on the label.  This is a pre-emergent only that will not affect any actively growing weeds and only prevents the weeds listed on the label when applied before they germinate which does not include sandbur or horseweed.  Something like Pendulum 2G would be more recommended for Sandbur.  We are not able to find a pre-emergent labeled for horseweed.

    Q
    Is this safe to use in a field that has free range chickens?
    A

    Since Prodiamine 65 WDG is not labeled for use where animals graze or around animal facilities, we would not recommend using this in areas where the chickens will roam or feed. We would recommend waiting at least one year before allowing animals to graze in areas treated with this product.

    Q
    How much product do I need to put in 300 gallons of water?
    A

    In order to know how much Prodiamine 65 WDG (Generic Barricade) you need, you will first need to determine how much area you're covering. Once you know that, you will follow the label for rates. For example, you use anywhere from 0.5-2.3 lbs per acre or 0.185-0.83 oz per 1k square feet depending on your lawn type. Once you know how much product you need per area, you will need to calibrate your sprayer to determine how much water to use

    Q
    How long before horses can graze?
    A

    Prodiamine 65 WDG cannot be used in pastures where animals will graze.  We apologize, but we are not aware of a pre-emergent herbicide that can be used in grazing areas.  You may want to contact your local cooperative extension office to see if they have any recommendations.
