Fluridone RTU is manufactured by Alligare and is a ready-to-use herbicide designed for controlling aquatic vegetation in fresh water ponds, lakes, reservoirs, potable water sources, drainage canals and irrigation canals.
The active ingredient of Alligare Fluridone RTU is fluridone which is absorbed quickly by aquatic plant species, while any surplus product is broken down by sunlight. Alligare Fluridone RTU is effective because it controls the weed in its entirety, including the roots. Aquatic plants treated with Alligare Fluridone RTU will wilt and/or turn white in 3 to 6 weeks following application.
Tools Needed
There are no tools required to use Fluridone RTU as it comes in a ready-to-use bottle that has a built-in applicator tip. We do recommend having gloves and long sleeve clothing before applying the product.
How to Use
- Step 1: Determine the amount of Fluridone RTU you need by measuring your pond size and depth. The formula to follow is pond acres x pond average depth (in feet) = amount of Fluridone RTU bottles needed. Fluridone RTU is one quart (32 oz.). So for example, if your pond size is 0.5 acres x 4.0-foot average depth, you will need 2 quarts or 2 bottles of Fluridone RTU. Consult the rate chart on the label for details.
- Step 2: Fluridone RTU comes in a convenient squeeze bottle that only requires the user to lift the nozzle on the lid and squirt the Fluridone RTU directly into the water. You will apply half of the total dose on day one then wait 21 days to apply a second dosage of 1 to 2 quarts and apply a third dosage on the 42nd day.
- Step 3: Simply apply Fluridone RTU at one spot and the Fluridone RTU will disperse throughout the water.
Where to Use
Fluridone RTU is designed to be used in freshwater ponds, lakes, reservoirs, potable water sources, drainage canals and irrigation canals.
When to Use
Use Fluridone RTU if your pond is being hampered by undesired pond weeds that may be interfering with recreation and ruining the overall look of your pond. Apply when weeds are actively growing or are just starting to grow for best results.
Safety Information
Sonar RTU is safe to use when applied according to label directions. Please wear the necessary PPE (gloves, boots, long-sleeved clothing) before applying the product to your pond.
Special Considerations
Sonar RTU is a liquid herbicide and does not need to be mixed or diluted in a sprayer. Do not apply more than a total of 3 quarts of Sonar RTU per acre-foot in a single growing season.
