Customer Reviews for Trimec Southern Broadleaf Herbicide

I use this product to controll southern weeds that invade my nc lawn. Product does as it states without damaging my centipeede. I heard about this product from my ag dealer, and I haven't stopped using it yet. I would definitely recommend it to anyone...

I've been using Trimec Southern for 4 years now and it knocks down my worst weeds consistently without affecting my Bermudagrass lawn in Central Alabama. My lot was formerly pasture land, so it's got some of the hardiest weeds I've ever faced and Trimec kills everything and leaves my lawn intact.

I have been please with the results that I have gotten do far. The only negative is it is a bit slow working. I am very happy that it did not kill my centipede grass. I would recommend this product to anyone with weed issues.

I have used this for 3 years now & is as advertised - kills allmost all broadleaf type weeds. Next year I will also go with a pre-emergent for the grassy type weeds. Waited too long this year, and am paying the price with my weed popper, which right after a rain orks pretty well.

1 oz per gal of water and the grass died deader than a kipper on a cracker. Used it for spot spraying weed thank heavens and not total coverage. You get measurements of .37 oz to 2 oz as recommended amounts per 1000 sq ft (which unless info if you are a farmer). i understand that 1 gal is 1000 sf. The Trimec I used before (not the one for souther lawns) worked great. Not sure what is going on with the southern lawn formula.

The product does just what I wanted it to do. It kills hebit and yellow wood sorrel without damaging my centipede and St Augustine grass

a little hesitatent to use this on my mixed St Augustine and other unidentified strains of grasses, but charged ahead with the minimum, .5oz / gal in a 1 gal hand sprayer, the yard size is 5,000 sq. ft. It did a wonderful job on all the dandelions and a few other weeds. on my next pass through the yard in a couple of months i will up the amount to .75oz/gal and see if that does a better job. i am highly satisfied with the results an expect this to be the number one in weed control for me.

Purchased to control henbit and other broadleaf. I would give it a 5-star most broadleaf but no stars for henbit. I sprayed twice here in the Fall for henbit and they are unaffected. I have followed the label directions but the henbit is growing well. Since they are in the lawn, I do not want to use more as it will kill the grass which is still green. I read there is a Trimec Plus for henbit but not sure if it will work and this herbicide is already expensive. I read that burning kills henbit ;(

I applied a simple solution, just a splash, into a pump sprayer and applied it to front and back yard. within 2 weeks weeds were gone! The instructions on the bottle tell you to be cautious and not over use with centipede grass, hence the "splash" of product. TY

I am a DIYer. I have to say that this product does an excellent job of controlling weeds in my Centipede lawn. I apply pre emergents and then I only have to spot treat here and there. Yes, there are a few weeds that need a second treatment, but this product works better than any other store bought herbicide. I recommend this product and DoMyOwn. Do the math of cost per gallon of Trimec vs store bought, and it's performance, and you will use this too.

My yard had contamination from the street drain backing up after a big rain. It destroyed my St. Augustine Palmetto grass which allowed the clover and other weeds to take over. I was expecting at least 2 applications, but they're already gone! In fact...by the second day. Now I have to restore my beautiful grass when I get the soil sample back from the county. By the way, I followed the label directions to the letter and didn't fudge on anything. The remaining grass that was still puny was completely untouched. Applied it March 1st and it is mid-March now. Good stuff. Didn't need very much of it to work. I only needed about 1/2 cup for my whole yard, front and back, including the surfactant. Used a 3-gallon sprayer.

I have used this product that I purchased from local garden supply which was more effective. I think this product has lost it potency,because I did not get good result

This seems to be the ticket for knotweed and Florida Pusley. Only been down for about 5 days, but WOW! Received my order faster than I expected and just before the rain set in. Thanks

I purchased this product to get rid of Oxalis, a large genus of flowering plants in the wood-sorrel family. The oxalis was choking out my grass and I thought my application of Gordon's Pasture Pro over the years was containing it. I was wrong. Pasture Pro didn't touch it. Long story short after doing some research I decided to try Trimec. This really did the trick. It attacked the oxalis which is in full retreat. DoMyOwn is a great company. I will definitely continue to do business with them. Fair price and a wide selection.

Took about one week but the wild onions/garlic started to die off. Wish it came in a smaller size bottle and had a measuring cup with it. Other then that i'm happy with the results.

VeDomyown delivered my order quickly. Trimec is a strong product. It doesn't take a lot to kill the weeds. I will use the product again. Thx Domyown !

I applied this product as directed, expecting to see quick results. Not only did it not work, the weeds were just as healthy. I wasted my money. I'll be more attentive to who I talk to at DMO.

  Expert response:
Please keep in mind that It can take 14 to 21 days to see results on young, actively growing weeds when using a product like Trimec Southern. Depending on how well established the target weeds are, it could take a full 21 days, and a repeat treatment may possibly be needed. Additionally, this product is only labeled for use on broadleaf weeds, but will not be effective for targeting grassy weeds.

Kind of works ok. Not all weeds go away. Spurge is still prevalent. Will have to check again in spring summer time when grass is greener or weeds pop again.

I live in New Mexico and have a weed called goats head. I have tried all kinds of stuff to kill then. I haven't found anything till now. Sprayed 2 times and they are gone. I will be buying more in the future.

It turns the weeds a brown look but does not completely kill it in most area. I ordered and put it out for a second time like was suggested but did the same thing. I called about putting a second round because we had a very big rain a day after I put it out the first treatment but it did the same the second treatment also.

Takes care of all my chickweed, clover and spurge.

product works great. but need more instructions about how to mix for spot spraying. most instructions show to mix .75 oz for 1 acre. but for spot spraying that is not sufficient. i mixed .75 per gallon of water and that was WAY too strong. killed my bermuda grass.

This is a really good broadleaf herbicide, for me it works best early in the summer to take care of the pig weed that pops up every year.

This product killed all of the dollar weed in my St Augustine grass. .33oz/10 ml per gallon per 1000 square feet! It killed most of the other weeds with few exceptions.

This products very well on the clover popping up in my newer bermuda grass. I mixed it at about 3/4 dose since the grass was newer. It took care of the clover and stunted the grass a bit, but it is coming back. I'd say wait until you mow about 5 times before using it on new grass.

Had Japanese clover in different areas of the yard. Two days after spraying the plants started yellowing and within two weeks the plants were completely dead. The product did not affect the Bermuda grass at all. Very pleased!
