Tools Needed

To apply Eagle 20EW you will need a hand-pump, hose-end or backpack sprayer for residential spray treatments. Our top recommendation is a hand-pump sprayer.

How to Use

• Step 1: Determine how much Eagle 20 EW you will need by calculating the square footage of the treatment area. To do this, measure (in feet) the area length and width and then multiply the two values (length x width = square footage). The recommended rate of Eagle 20EW is 1 to 2.4 fl. oz. per 1,000 square feet. Depending on the diseases you wish to treat you should mix with 1 gallon of water for foliar diseases, or 2 to 3 gallons to control diseases causing root and crown rots. The exact amount varies depending on the disease type (check the label). For example, if you want to control dollar spot on turfgrass and measured an area of 3,000, the label states to use 1 fl. oz. per 1,000 sq. ft. In this case, mix 3 oz. of Eagle in 3 gallons of water to cover the entire area.
• Step 2: In a hand-pump sprayer, add water about halfway and then add Eagle 20EW at the appropriate rate based on your calculations. Fill the tank the rest of the way with water then agitate well until the product is well mixed.
• Step 3: Apply the Eagle 20EW spray solution as a spot treatment upon the first sign of the disease to the foliage or you could spray the solution preventatively. We recommend setting the sprayer to a fan spray to get a nice uniform coating on the infected plant.
• Step 4: Reapply as needed every 7 to 10 days until the disease is gone or preventatively once a month during the disease season. It may take up to two months of repeat applications to successfully remove the disease, depending on the disease type.

Special Considerations

This product can also be applied with adjuvants, fungicides, herbicides, micronutrients, etc, check the label for compatibility spray charts, rates and precautions.
