    Q
    Remedy residual in soil
    Am I understanding correctly that Remedy travels through brushed on stems/roots into surrounding soil?
    A

    The active ingredient in Remedy Ultra Herbicide, Triclopyr, will travel through the plant, however, it is not known to leach into soil. There is a slight possibility as it does not bind extremely tight to soil, but for most, it is not an issue.

    Q
    Will Remedy Ultra Herbicide kill trees?
    A

    Over spray, or spray drift of Remedy Ultra Herbicide can harm desired plants. While a light over spray won't be enough to kill a fully matured tree, it can certainly kill the leaves it has contacted.  The tree should recover in time.

    Q
    Does stump need to be removed even after using Remedy
    Great website. I just read one of your responses. Question was raised regarding 6 inch stump. You indicated how you could treat one stump with Remedy but also indicated that the stump and roots would still have to be removed. Is this correct? If so, why use Remedy.
    A
    Remedy Ultra Herbicide will kill it, so it can no longer sprout. However, the dead wood would still remain and would need to be removed as it can take a while to decay. Remedy may be an option if you want to kill the stump, but are unable to remove it right now (laborious, large project, cost etc). Reasons, why you may need to quickly kill the stump, may be its producing unwanted sprouts, the root system is under concrete and ripping it, etc.

    Q
    With remedy ultra kill bamboo
    A
    Remedy Ultra Herbicide is not labeled to control bamboo, although many people will use products containing triclopyr in conjunction with bamboo labeled herbices to try and gain better control. You can use Round Up QuickPro at the highest listed usage rate to help eliminate bamboo. No matter what product you use when trying to control bamboo you need to cut the plant down level with the ground and then use the designated product at the highest rate or undiluted to paint/pour directly on the freshly cut surface. Bamboo roots run very deep so often you have to do multiple applications with a product and repeat the cutting and painting phase a few times to fully kill the plant.

    A
    Remedy Ultra Herbicide states to use 2-4 pints per acre for susceptible woody plants, which would reduce down to .73-1.47 oz per 1k square feet. It does not state how much water to use, so you will need to calibrate your sprayer. Below is a link on how to calibrate how your sprayer & determine how much water to use.

    Q
    After stem spraying small mesquite, how long do I leave it before removal to get root kill?
    Multi stem mesquite less than four feet tall
    A
    Per the manufacturer, you would want to leave it for at least a year, or as long as possible, to allow Remedy Ultra Herbicide to get as far down to the root system as possible. The manufacturer also advised the best application time is in early spring, so you may not see the best results. They also recommended to tank mix it with Sendero Herbicide. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.

    Q
    What is the rate of Remedy Ultra Herbicide for smaller volumes of spray to treat buckthorn?
    I am a small, older woman and plan to cut the smaller buckthorn plants to the ground, then spray with Remedy Ultra. For the larger buckthorn trees someone will help me cut them to the ground. Can I spray the stumps in the same way? My Remedy Ultra supply is more than three years old. Is it still effective, perhaps with less diluting?
    A

    The mixing ratio of Remedy Ultra Herbicide is 1.28 - 1.92 fl. oz. per gallon of water for spot treatments. For smaller volume treatments, a 1 gallon hand pump sprayer needs to be used, this should not be applied using a hand held trigger spray bottle. 
     
    For stump treatments, you would use 25 fl oz to 38.4 fl oz per gallon of water, being sure to get the outer layers and cambium of the stump. You will still need to remove the stumps and root systems physically after using herbicides to stop regrowth. 

    Remedy Ultra Herbicide has a shelf life of 3 to 5 years if stored out of extreme temperatures (heat/freezing) and out of direct sunlight.

    Q
    Will Remedy Ultra Herbicide kill live oaks if treating a huisache shrub that is under the live oak?
    A

    Over spray, or spray drift of Remedy Ultra Herbicide can harm desired plants. While a light over spray won't be enough to kill a fully matured tree, it can certainly kill the leaves it has contacted. You may want to consider applying as a cut stump treatment directly to the freshly cut trunk of the shrub to prevent any overspray or drift onto exposed roots or limbs of the live oak.

    Refer to the product label for more information.

    Q
    Will Remedy kill Ginkgo trees as a foliar application? If so, what is the dosage rate?
    A

    Remedy Ultra Herbicide is not labeled to kill or control ginkgo trees. Using a non selective glyphosate herbicide and applying as a cut stump method is a very common way to kill unwated trees. Another method would be girdling which is where you remove the bark completely around the circumference of the tree. This prevents the tree from being able to transport nutrients from the leaves to the roots. 

    We would recommend consulting with a local arborist for their recommendations they have shown to be successful in your area for killing ginkgo trees or your local County Cooperative Extension Office for their herbicide recommendations.
