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.

  • Use only on established lawn grasses; nutsedge timing, stress, mowing and reseeding restrictions apply. Keep people and pets off treated areas until sprays dry.
  • SedgeHammer+ includes a surfactant; the 75% SedgeHammer formulation has separate adjuvant directions. Do not interchange their mixing instructions.

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.
