Tools Needed

BareSpot Weed and Grass comes ready to use, but you can use a handheld or push spreader for large scale areas. You will also need a water hose or irrigation system to wet the pellets after application.

How to Use

• Step 1: Determine how much BareSpot Weed and Grass to use by measuring the square footage of the treatment area. You can do this by multiplying the length and width together (length X width = square footage). For acreage, take the square footage and divide it by 43,560 sq. ft. (square footage / 43,560 = acre). For annual weeds and vegetation control apply between 1 to 2 lbs. of BareSpot Weed and Grass per 100 sq. ft. For perennial and deep rooted weeds apply 3 lbs. per 100 sq. ft. 
• Step 2: Pour the appropriate amount of BareSpot Weed and Grass into your selected spreader. Calibrate your spreader to ensure even coverage. If you do not know your spreader setting, we recommend a medium calibration setting.
• Step 3: Walk a moderate speed in straight parallel lines from one end of the treatment area to the other to ensure even coverage. Be sure to leave between 3 to 5 feet between each pass. Once your entire treatment area has an even coverage apply a low pressure volume of water to ensure it granules are properly soaked into the root system of desired plant, but not to the point of run-off. Be sure to avoid applying or watering BareSpot Weed and Grass from desired plant roots.
