Remedy Ultra Herbicide does not harm any insects like butterflies and moths. We do recommend applying in the early morning or later in the evening when pollinators are less active if you are treating plants with blooms.
How you dilute and apply Remedy Ultra Herbicide will depend on the target plant(s) and how you are applying the product. For example, to use Remedy Ultra for a cut stump treatment, you would cut the tree down to a stump and then treat the fresh cuts with Remedy Ultra Herbicide. For small volume applications, you would use 25-38.4 oz per gallon of water, being sure to get the outer layers and cambium of the stump. Please refer to the product label for complete application instructions.
After an application of Remedy Ultra Herbicide, a 5ft mesquite would probably take a good 3-4 weeks to kill before it can be cut down. If you sprayed on August 1st, we recommend giving it another weed or two before cutting it down but we would still recommend to spray the stump after cutting it just to be safe.
No, Remedy Ultra Herbicide is not labeled to control or kill nutsedge.

Remedy Ultra Herbicide should be applied at least 25 ft away from any creeks/streams etc. as it is toxic to fish. Also, do not apply directly to water, to areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high watermark.

Remedy Ultra Herbicide is labeled for many woody brush and trees however it not labeled for sweetgums and without knowing the one specific tree (long hard thorns), we would be unable to advise if using Remedy would be successful. Please contact your local cooperative extension office for positive identification of the trees you are wanting to kill.
When using Remedy Ultra Herbicide on trees, you would most likely want to use it undiluted. Our recommendation is to cut them back as much as you can, and apply the product undiluted on them where you have cut them. If that is not possible, you can make cuts into the branches and stems with a hack saw and apply the product to those cuts.
Remedy Ultra Herbicide is safe around horses when used as directed on the label. It is recommended they be out of the area during treatment until dry. If you experience a horse becoming sick due to this product , please contact your equine veterinarian for medical assistance.

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.
Per the product label, it is recommended to wait 3 weeks after the application of Remedy Ultra Herbicide to seed or plant in the treated area.
