Use this to kill existing grass in landscape beds.
1. How it Works
Over-The-Top II Grass Killer is a selective post-emergent herbicide designed to target and eliminate unwanted grasses without harming broadleaf plants. The primary active ingredient in this herbicide disrupts plants’ ability to produce essential amino acids necessary for growth.
Once applied, Over-The-Top II Grass Killer is absorbed by the grass and moves systemically throughout the plant. This ensures that the entire grass plant, from the blades down to the roots, is affected, leading to its eventual death while leaving surrounding broadleaf plants unharmed.
2. Usage
Over-The-Top II Grass Killer is a selective herbicide designed for use in ornamental gardens, flower beds, landscape beds, ground covers, and other areas where grassy weeds are a problem but broadleaf plants are desired. It’s essential to apply the product when the unwanted grasses are young and actively growing for maximum effectiveness. Mix with a surfactant to increase the product’s efficacy.
Since it’s a selective herbicide, it won’t harm most broadleaf plants when used as directed. However, always follow label instructions regarding dosage, application methods, and safety precautions to achieve the best results and avoid potential harm to desired plants.
3. Targeting Specific Pests and Diseases
Over-The-Top II Grass Killer is formulated to control a variety of unwanted grasses, including crabgrass, foxtail, bermuda, barnyard grass, and many others. Its selective nature ensures that while these unwanted grasses are targeted, the surrounding broadleaf plants, such as flowers, shrubs, and trees, remain unaffected.
For persistent or hard-to-control grasses, a follow-up application might be necessary. Regular monitoring of the treated area and timely applications can help ensure a grass-free ornamental garden or flower bed, allowing the desired plants to flourish without competition from invasive grasses.
Note: As always, when using any herbicide product, it’s essential to read and follow label instructions carefully. Over-The-Top II Grass Killer should be kept out of reach of children and pets, and users should wear appropriate protective equipment during application.
