Weedtrine D Aquatic Herbicide is a non-volatile herbicide for use in controlling submersed, floating aquatic and marginal weeds. This product works by being absorbed by the weed. Herbicidal effects are visible within a few days. Optimum results are seen if the weeds are young and actively growing. Treatment of dense weed areas may result in oxygen loss from decomposition of dead weeds.

How it Works:

Weedtrine D Aquatic Herbicide is a liquid solution that you mix with water and spray on unwanted aquatic and terrestrial weeds. Once it comes into contact with the weeds, it quickly stops their ability to produce energy through photosynthesis, causing them to wilt and eventually die. By following the proper application guidelines, you can effectively control weed growth in various environments without harming the surrounding plants or aquatic life.

Application:

Step 1: Measure and Mix

• Determine the amount of Weedtrine D required by calculating the surface area (length x width) and volume (length x width x depth) of the treatment area.
• Mix the required amount of Weedtrine D with water in a handheld pump sprayer, backpack sprayer, or skid sprayer. Ensure the solution is well mixed by agitating the sprayer.

Step 2: Apply the Herbicide

• Apply Weedtrine D uniformly over the water surface using coarse droplets.
• Target weeds directly and ensure they are wet but not over-saturated.
• For optimal results, add 1 oz. of non-ionic surfactant per 10 gallons of spray solution.

Step 3: Weedtrine D in Action

• Upon contact, Weedtrine D starts to work immediately, causing rapid wilting and foliage loss in targeted weeds.
• The herbicide is absorbed by the weeds and inhibits their ability to photosynthesize, ultimately causing their death.

Step 4: Monitor and Reapply

• Within 1 to 2 weeks, observe visible results, such as a reduction in weed growth and muck accumulation.
• If necessary, reapply Weedtrine D after 2 weeks to ensure complete weed control.
