CRABGRASS KILLER - FAQ
Q: Is it safe?
A: Yes, Crabgrass Killer is safe around people, pets, and the environment.
Q: How do I use it?
A: It's very easy, just wet with water the area you want to treat and sprinkle the Crabgrass Killer over the area.
Q: How long does it take for crabgrass to die?
A: Noticeable results will be seen in 3-5 days.
Q: How large of an area will one bottle treat?
A: One 2 lb. bottle will treat 100-200 sq. ft. depending on applicator.
Q: Will it kill the seeds?
A: No, it will only kill actively growing crabgrass and weeds. Corn Gluten Meal can be used to prevent the seeds from emerging.
Q: Will it hurt my grass?
A: Crabgrass Killer will not harm St. Augustine, Bermuda, or Bahia grasses. Other grasses are being tested throughout the country.
Q: What if it doesn't work?
A: It will work, just make sure the area is wet enough and evenly treat, very easy to use.
Q: What do you mean "wet enough" and why does it turn yellow?
A: The Crabgrass Killer turns YELLOW to let you the consumer know it has been fully activated. Water is the source of its activation so enough water is needed to activate the yellowing.
Q: Why do I want it "activated"?
A: Within minutes of activation the product begins to work in killing your weeds.
Q: How can I best "activate" the product?
A: Wet the area desired to be killed, apply the Crabgrass Killer, wait a few minutes, if not activated then lightly mist over the product so as to completely activate. (Do NOT wash the product off of the leaves)
Q: How can I "wet the area"?
A: Spray bottle, backpack sprayer, water hose or irrigation all work effectively.
Q: How long should I "not disturb" the product after it has turned yellow?
A: 24 to 48 hours undisturbed
Q: What do you mean, "undisturbed"?
A : This product is taken in through the leaves and will "NOT" be taken up through the root system. Irrigation, mowing and rain can disturb the product enough so as to reduce the desired results.
Q: What do you mean, "evenly treated"?
A: The average consumer thinks about most products "more is better", piling this product on weeds will only serve to cost you more money. A nice light to medium complete coating is adequate as long as activation was accomplished.
Q: Is it temperature sensitive?
A: NO, in all of our years of testing, Crabgrass Killer was 100% affective in all temperatures common to North America.
Q: Can I use it year round?
A: YES, but applying it to weeds that are already dead or completely dormant would be a waste of product.
Q: Do you have any tips to help me save money on using your product?
A: YES, remember you have to "completely cover the weed you want killed," so make sure you kill those weeds when they are at their smallest stage or simply mow them down to reduce the size and area you have to cover. This WILL reduce the amount of product you need. (Remember you cannot remove ALL of the leaves as this product has to be taken in through the leaves.)
