Label scope and conditions

EPA-accepted master label, residential-lawn use only. Marketed labels may use a subset of these claims. Match the registration and formulation, and follow the label on your container; this reference is not a replacement for it.

  • Do not use on bahiagrass, carpetgrass, centipedegrass or St. Augustinegrass. Seashore paspalum is moderately tolerant in Table 1. Fine fescue must be part of a blend; creeping bentgrass has split-application directions.
  • Follow Table 3 for weed stage, required additive, repeat applications, tank-mix qualifications and California limitations. In New York, application is spot treatment only.

This page summarizes coverage and does not provide application rates or mixing instructions. Use the complete label on your container for directions, protective equipment, reentry, environmental precautions, and restrictions.
