Customer Reviews for SedgeHammer Plus Herbicide

1st identify the weeds. 2nd research the weeds (as in how to kill them). Don't ask the helpful guy at the hardware and garden store. He might know less than you.They will sell you a product that claims to kill sedge and/or control it. Three weeks later the weeds and your yard are yellowing! Three more weeks and the grass is dying and the weeds are making a comeback. Sedgehammer works and my grass is still green. Buy the bottle and spray the neighbors yard also. If you don't, the seeds from his weeds will blow into your yard and you will be spraying the weeds again on a Saturday instead of golfing.

Sledgehammer is by far the only herbicide for Nutsedge on the market today. Nutsedge goes all the way to the root where others Don't. Used in conjunction with a Surfactant, it market the Sedgehammer stick to the actual weed until it die. This price is about 40% cheaper that over the counter at garden centers or feed and seed stores.

My strawberry patch and various areas of my yard and garden were infested with nutsedge. In the strawberries I dripped the sedgehammer on each nutsedge plant. I sprayed in the other areas. About one week later all the nutsedge had turned yellow and was in the process of dying. I will continue to use the sedgehammer throughout the summer, killing any new sprouts that come up. I have used other products found at the big box home stores with minimal success. Highly recommended.

Worked very well for young shallow rooted Yellow Sedge. Downside is that after it is mixed with a gallon of water it is only active for 24 hours. You may consider mixing 1/4-1/2 of the package with a quart or half gallon as needed.

I've tried several products to control nut sedge but none really worked. I read some reviews about SedgeHammer and decided to give it a try. This is a great selective herbicide! It seems to take about a week before I notice the nut sedge beginning to turn brown. This product does not harm my centipede grass.

I've been using this product for 15 years and it's the only thing that will get rid of Sedge Weed. You must follow the instructions on when to spray (leaf size). You must use a surfactant with it. It only grows in warmer months and goes dormant in the winter (in Phoenix from about April to October). You cannot pull these weeds out (trust me, I've tried) because they make underground runners that proliferate and expand the growth pattern. If you find a small colony of sedge look closely at an area 10' away from the edge of the colony which is where you are likely to find new growth coming up. Spray it without delay to stop further expansion of the growth. You must be patient, it may take 3 to 5 seasons to get it under control and you must then check every spring to look for survivors. This is not like cutting off the head of a snake and killing the entire snake, you must work from the outside in.

Expensive but does the job. Only thing I've found to really control nut grass.

Had a bid from a local lawn care service, which said I have Nutsedge grass problem. His price to solve was too expensive and I had to commit to 6 months of service. Got on the website (I have purchased from this company before) and found this product. I like the fact that it does not require you to buy a surfactant to mix with it. Its already in it! Just mixed the powder with a gallon of water in your sprayer and you are good to go! Easy easy easy! I used 2 gallons on my front yard and now all I see is bermuda grass -- NO Nutsedge. It stopped the Nutsedge growth immediately, and now it is gradually dying out. I just purchased 3 more for my back and side yards.

This is the second season I have used SedgeHammer. We have had a bad Nutgrass problem for several years--have tried multiple remedies with little or no satisfaction. At the end of last summer, I used SedgeHammer--the Nutgrass literally disappeared. By July of this year, we again had a good Nutgrass crop. I tried a different product resulting in dead lawn areas and thriving Nutgrass. Used Sedgehammer again, Nutgrass disappeared again without damage to the lawn. I ran out, so have ordered enough to use when the Nutgrass becomes active again next spring. I hope two applications in the same season may end our Nutgrass.

Eliminated SedgeHammer infestation on my St. Augustine lawn in 45 days. Sedge stopped growing in 14 days. Great stuff and easy to handle.

I have used SedgeHammer before and I know it works. It won't get rid of the sedge forever, I had to re-spray again this year. It is a bit pricey, but when you find something which works, it beats out all competition.

It took about a week but then my large patches of infestation was greatly thinned out. It got about 95% of it which I was quite happy with, only had a few stragglers to pull.

Takes about three weeks to see effects. Heavy infestation requires second treatment. Not for use in herb garden. Check label for use in vegetable garden.

This was the lowest cost form of applying SedgeHammer that I could find on the internet. I received the package quickly and am pleased with the results.

Nothing else worked until we tried SedgeHammer. We can now happily report that the sedge grass is gone. Dead. Thank you.

I tried pulling the stuff out when I first spotted it, got so good I could spot it emerging 30 feet away, but it was to much for me (and the assorted weed killers I tried). I tried SEDGEHAMMER and like magic, it was gone!!!! Sprayed it as instructed and within days the war was over! Whatever is in the stuff - it worked.

Although it is expensive, it does work. I let the yard grow about a 5 days after I mowed it, applied SedgeHammer, waited about a week before I mowed again. Three weeks later no signs of the sedge coming back. It did not harm my Saint Augustine Grass at all! I am extremely happy with my first purchase from DoMyOwnPestControl.com I will definitely be ordering more products in the future.

You may have to use it a few times to gets the best results... I used it twice on back to back weeks... then a third spot dose just to be sure it did the trick. It does work on nutsedge... and that weed is had to kill. Buy it in larger quantity it doesn't go bad unless you mix it.

I have used 'big box' products which required several applications but SegeHammer killed the nutsedge after one application. Excellent product.

This was the perfect product to counter an invasion of nut grass. After one treatment 95% were eliminated. I even used it on several other broadleaf weeds and found out that SledgeHammer killed them as well. This is the product to use.

Nut grass started sprouting in my lawn and I was told by a friend that SedgeHammer was the only thing that would kill it. Worked like a charm.

I sprayed nutsedge in a garden bed of Mondo and Liriope not knowing what might happen. The Nutsedge was as short as six inches and as tall as 2 1/2 feet. A little over two weeks have passed and the nutsedge is all a welcome yellow color and is dying. Since fall has fallen, I will have to wait until next spring to see if any little baby nuts still have enough oomph to sprout but I will be ready for them. Oh yes - I also had to spray it on some Hostas and some ground cover ("Green Carpet" a/k/a Rupture Wort, a/k/a Herniaria Glabra) and it and the aforesaid good stuff all seem to be none for the worse. I have fought and cussed this pest for 40 years. This stuff works! Roundup doesn't, unless you use it on itty bitty babies before they have formed their first "nut."

One packet destroyed my nut grass to the roots. The first application showed results in 7 days. The second application finished it off. For 10 bucks I got rid of something that haunted my yard for 3 years.

SedgeHammer is a terrific product. I have used other products such as ProSedge, and found SedgeHammer consistently delivered a far superior result.

This product is a slow kill and does take up to ten days before I noticed the nutsedge turning brown.
