Tools Needed
To use this product you will need a backpack, tank, or hand sprayer. A hand-pump sprayer would be ideal for smaller applications.
How to Use
- Step 1: Fill a hand-pump sprayer halfway with water and then mix in endulum AquaCap Herbicide at a rate of 1.1 to 2.3 ounces per 1,000 square feet. Fill the sprayer the rest of the way with water and agitate the sprayer until mixed.
- Step 2: Spray the product onto your lawn or other area where you would like to control problematic weeds. Make sure to put the sprayer on a fan setting to get nice uniform coverage.
- Step 3: Reapply as needed to control weeds before they emerge.
Where to Use
Pendulum AquaCap can be used on residential lawn, golf courses and on garden or ornamental plants.
When to Use
Timing is crucial when using Pendulum AquaCap. Since the product is a pre-emergent, it needs to be applied before the problem weed emerges, especially if it's been a reoccurring problem. If the weed is already growing, Pendulum AquaCap will not work (unless on select weed types) and you will have to use a post-emergent herbicide.
Safety Information
Pendulum AquaCap is safe to use around children or pets when applied according to the product label instructions. Always wear the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when mixing or applying this product.
Wait until 24 hours have passed before allowing children, pets, and workers to reenter treated areas.
Special Considerations
Pendulum AquaCap will not control established weeds.

Q:How much pendulum aquacap for 300 gallons?3/4/24A:This will depend on the area you are trying to treat and what you are targeting. When applying a product like Pendulum, it is really about making your sure you apply enough product to treat a given area's size. Typically, you would use 1 fl.oz. of Pendulum to treat 1,000 sq.ft. or up to 6 pints to treat an acre.

Q:After I spray how long till it drys before rain comes in?1/27/20A:It goes on wet. Drys quickly. Needs 1/2 inch of rain or 1/2 inch of water content snow within 10 days for maximum long term potency. It starts losing potency as sun exposure due to not being watered in deteriorates the chemicals.
