MEASUREMENT CALCULATIONS
Calculate square feet by multiplying length by width.

1. SPRING: The best time to treat weeds is when they are small and growing.
2. FALL: Many problem weeds germinate in the fall, and treatment then will eliminate many of next year’s weeds.

HOSE-END SPRAYER INSTRUCTIONS

1. Shake container well before using.
2. Connect a garden hose to the Ready-Spray nozzle. Make sure the dial on the nozzle is in the “OFF” position with the safety tab in the valve notch.
3. Turn on water at faucet. Extend hose to the farthest area to be treated and work back toward the faucet so you don’t come in contact with the treated area.
4. To BEGIN spraying, point nozzle toward lawn or plants to be treated and 1.) bend the safety tab (located at right of dial) back and hold, and 2.) using your other hand, QUICKLY turn the dial clockwise until it stops. Water will automatically mix with the product.
5. Spray until wet to control weeds listed. Walk at a steady pace while spraying, using an even sweeping motion, slightly overlapping treated areas. One quart will treat 16,000 sq ft of southern and 8,000 sq ft of northern grasses. Calculate square feet by multiplying length by width. Refer to sight gauge to guide coverage (example: when bottle is half empty, you should have covered half the area).
6. To STOP spraying, QUICKLY turn the dial in the opposite direction of “ON” (counterclockwise) until it stops and the safety tab engages into the notch. Turn water off at faucet. To relieve pressure before removing nozzle from hose, bend the safety tab back and turn dial “ON” until water stops spraying.
7. To STORE unused product, make sure the dial is in the “OFF” position with the safety tab in the valve notch. Place in a cool area away from heat, sunlight or open flame.

• For best results, mow before treating weeds.
• Do not treat when air temperatures exceed 85°F or damage to grass may occur.
• Do not water within six hours after treatment. Poor weed control may result if rainfall occurs within six hours of application.
• For new lawns, treat within 24 hours after seeding. On established lawns, wait three weeks after treatment before re-seeding. Once new grass has started to grow, wait until it has reached a height of 2 inches before treating. Treat as directed for newly sodded lawns if weeds are present.
• Do not allow spray to get on vegetables or ornamental plants since injury may result. Do not spray around roots of trees and ornamentals. Clover will be damaged if sprayed.
• Whether using a hose-end sprayer or pressure sprayer, avoid sprays that are too fine because they can drift and damage other plants.
• If certain tough weeds are not dead within three weeks, repeat treatment. Broadcast application is not necessary; follow spot treatment directions.
• Use of this product when air temperatures are below 60ºF may result in delayed appearance of weed control.
