Customer Reviews for Scythe Herbicide

This product is expensive, but is the only thing I have found to make an impact on Nostoc/Nostoc Commune. That is a land-based algae that is very slippery to drive or walk on. Scythe is "nonselective," so it wipes out everything pretty much. I'd like to find something even more effective against Nostoc in one treatment, but I am not aware of such.

I have used Scythe on difficult herbaceous invading plants like Knotweed and Houittuynia and it has worked really well. Self-seeding plants need more than one application, but this stuff really works.

Nothing can stand up to this! I spray the block patio and green things are yellow before I'm done. You'd think they'd turn yellow just seeing the bottle!

I have used this diluted 1:10 and it kills the weeds without fail. Very easy to use and no odor.

I bought the scythe for one reason....my Chinese wisteria was out of control. Nothing would touch it until scythe came along. Burned to the ground!!

I am using this product to get rid of Lesser Celadine. I only used it once when we had a warm day and it seemed to work well.

Scythe withers plants in hours of application. It's been cold here and from what I've heard it will work better when it gets hot. It doesn't seem to work as good as the roundup based products but it's worth the money for the cancer risks associated with roundup. It's nice having an alternate amino acid based product.

This will kill weed foliage in just a few minutes. (People will believe you if you tell them it's battery acid). If your impatient or someone else is, this is great stuff. A real ace in the hole to keep on hand for that one horribly impatient and unsatisfied customer. It won't last more than a few weeks or a month though before they start coming back. I use roundup pro max or pramitol for longer lasting control that kills the roots out.

Works well . I used it on a roof that had moss build up . A week and a half later went over it with a snow rake and it just came right off . Highly recommend this product

Applied after algae was rained on slightly drying in sun, but still hydrated, added surfactant and waited, follow application rate and algae will be gone.
