Trimec Southern is not labeled for snake weed (also known as broom weed) and unfortunately we do not carry any products that are labeled to control it that can be used in residential areas. You may wish to speak with a master gardener at your local cooperative extension office to see if they are aware of any products that have been successfully used by others in your area.

For broadleaf control, you would mx 0.75 oz Trimec Southern per 1,000 sq. ft. or approx. 1 gallon of water. You would want to mix approx. 1.5 oz with 2 gallons of water to cover a 2,000 sq ft lawn. You should not apply to newly seeded turf until after the second or third mowing.
Trimec Southern Broadleaf Herbicide should only be applied to Bermudagrass, Bentgrass, Bluegrass, Fescue, Zoysiagrass, Centipedegrass and St. Augustinegrass. Unfortunately, there are not any post emergent products that can be broadcast over ground covers or ornamentals for broadleaf weeds that will not also harm the plants you spray them over. You would need to hand pull any broadleaf weeds or carefully spot spray them with a Roundup-type product.
Per the product label, Trimec Southern Broadleaf Herbicide, Do not overdose closely-mowed bentgrass and to apply when weeds are young and actively growing. You want to be sure there is enough surface for the herbicide to adhere to the weed and that the weeds are not under any stress from mowing when the cuticles will be closed.

Trimec Southern Broadleaf Herbicide is applied at 0.37 - 1.1 oz per 1,000 sq. ft depending on your lawn type per the product label. The amount of water is not as important as making sure to apply the solution uniformily over the 1,000 square foot section. Most herbicide labels will list how much active ingredient should be used per 1,000 square feet. To calibrate your equipment, for example, mark off an area of 1,000 square feet, and cover that area at your normal pace as evenly as possible. If you used an entire gallon, you would use the recommended amount in 1 gallon of water. If you only use ½ gallon to cover the 1000 square feet then you mix the recommended amount on the product label in a 1/2 gallon of water. It could also take you up to 5 gallons of water to cover an area, depending on the equipment used and speed you are walking.
