Tools Needed
Illoxan 3EC Herbicide can be applied with a backpack or handheld pump sprayer.
Do not apply through any type of irrigation system.
How to Use
- Step 1: Mow treatment areas until 5/16 inches of goosegrass remains. Determine how much Illoxan 3EC Herbicide to use by calculating the square footage of the treatment area. To do this, measure the length and width of the treatment area in feet then multiply (length X width = square footage). Apply no more than 1 oz. of Illoxan 3EC Herbicide per gallon of water per 1,000 sq. ft. per application. Do not exceed more than a total of 1.5 oz. of product per 1,000 sq. ft. per year.
- Step 2: Fill your sprayer halfway with water, add measured amount of Illoxan 3EC Herbicide, then pour in remaining half of water. Close the sprayer lid and shake to ensure even agitation.
- Step 3: On a fan-spray setting, coat the top and bottom of weed leaves until wet. Wait until spray deposits are completely dry before irrigation. Mowing cannot occur until 36 hours have passed after application.
Where to Use
Use Illoxan 3EC Herbicide on established (stolons 4 inches in length) bermudagrass turf in golf course greens, golf course tees, golf course fairways, and closely mowed rough areas of golf courses.
When to Use
Apply Illoxan 3EC Herbicide when goosegrass is young and when turfgrass is not under stress from lack of moisture, chemical injury, insects, disease, or temperature extremes.
Do not apply when rainfall is forecasted within 1 hour of application.
Do not overseed treated area for at least 2 months from time of application.
