Asked by Valerie from Pequea, Pa04/15/2012QHow much Quick Silver do I mix per gallon of water?A
As with most herbicides the exact volume of water is not very important, you just need to be sure you are getting the correct amount of product on a specific area. In the case of Quicksilver you will need to use 0.021 - 0.154 fl oz per 1,000 sq ft of area. You can apply the specified amount of pro…

In the case of Quicksilver you will need to use 0.021 - 0.154 fl oz per 1,000 sq ft of area. You can apply the specified amount of product in 0.5 to 4.0 gallons (plus specified amount of surfactant) per 1000 sq.ft.. Use higher spray volumes when there is a dense weed population or turfgrass canopy or where uniform coverage is difficult to obtain. For spot treating weeds, other than moss, with hand-held or backpack sprayers mix 0.030 fluid ounces (0.9 milliliters) of this product in one to two gallons of water to treat 1000 square feet. Please refer to the QuickSilver product label for complete usage instructions.

Asked by Nicholas from Tampa, Fl10/01/2016QIs QuickSilver Herbicide the best for lasting control?
Reviews of Quicksilver say its best at lasting control when mixed with other herbicides to get into the root systems. In addition to the usual southern broadleaf weeds I'm dealing with a seemingly untouchable and very extensive Alligator Weed infestation in a St. Augustine lawn to the point that parts will have to be plugged or sodded after I finally kill these weeds. What herbicide(s) and/or surfactant would you recommend to mix this with for maximum effect on the Alligator Weed without killing the existing grass?AUnfortunately, QuickSilber Herbicide is not labeled for alligator weed, and would not control it. Most likely in your situation the best recommendation we can make would be RoundUp for spot spraying to get rid of it. There are not other herbicides that are labeled for this except ones that control a…

Read Full Answer »QuickSilver T&O Herbicide is not labeled for control alligator weed. This invasive plant is best controlled using triclopyr, glyphosate, or a few other select herbicides that can be very expensive. Unfortunately, we do not know of any herbicide that is labeled to control this plant that would not also harm St. Augustine turfgrass. Alligator weed is most often found in marsh areas or along waterways, so you generally will need to use an herbicide that is safe for use in aquatic areas.Â
Hi-Yield Killzall Aquatic is a good choice for smaller areas. AquaStar Herbicide would be good for larger areas. You should apply when most plants are flowering, and keep in mind that multiple applications may be required. You should also use a non-ionic surfactant with either of those herbicides for best results.
