For Early Season Annual Weed Control

When weeds are small (3-5 leaf) and actively growing, apply Burnout Weed & Grass killer to the foliage of the weeds, making sure that all of the foliage is wet. Thorough coverage is necessary to achieve desirable control.

Burnout Weed & Grass killer is fast acting. It can be applied up to one hour before rainfall and still be effective. If it rains less than one hour after treatment, determine if the treated leaves are showing symptoms. If symptoms are not obvious, wait until the leaves dry and re-treat.

For Control of Larger Annuals and Burn down of Perennial Weed Growth

Larger annual weeds and perennials are more difficult to control and may require re-treatment. Treat initially as recommended above and repeat if new growth of leaves appear. Thorough coverage of all foliage is necessary.

Best results are achieved from spring/early summer applications to actively growing young weeds. Weeds that are mature, dormant, or hardened due to moisture stress are more tolerant of herbicide treatments. Only contacted vegetation will be affected. Rainfall within one hour of application will reduce degree of control.

Application works best in hot sun, 73° or warmer.
