Ranger Pro Herbicide, manufactured by Monsanto, and is a non-selective post-emergent herbicide. Ranger Pro's active ingredient is Glyphosate which shares the same formula as RoundUp Pro, but at a more cost-effective price.

Ranger Pro comes in a water-soluble formulation and also comes built-in with a surfactant, so adding additional surfactant is not necessary, but you can still optionally include other surfactants.

This is also a systemic herbicide with no soil activity, meaning it is absorbed by the target weed either from the foliage or from the root system and moves through the entire plant, killing it while sparing adjacent plants that are not contacted by the product.

Tools Needed

To apply, you will need either a backpack sprayer, handheld pump sprayer, or a professional skid sprayer for large volume applications.

How to Use

• Step 1:  To figure out how much Ranger Pro Herbicide you need, you will need to first determine the size of the target area. To do this, measure and calculate the target area's length x width to get the total square footage of the area to be treated.
• For general spray-to-wet applications for annual weeds and perennial weeds, the mix ratio will be 0.5 to 10 percent solution of Ranger Pro at a rate of 2/3 fl. oz. to 13 fl. oz. per gallon of water to cover 1,000 sq. ft. Use the higher rate for weeds over 6 inches tall. Check the label for specifics rates depending on the weed you're trying to control.
• Step 2: Fill the spray tank with the required amount of water. Add the correct amount of product to the water near the end of filling the tank. If you are using a backpack or pump-up sprayer, it is suggested that the labeled amount of Ranger Pro Herbicide be mixed with water in a larger container then fill the sprayer with the mixed solution.
• Step 3: Apply the solution to targeted weeds at low pressure, spraying to wet but before the point of runoff. Use a fan nozzle spray setting for uniform and thorough coverage.

Where to Use

Ranger Pro is formulated for use on outdoor areas such as recreational areas, parks, farms, croplands, apartment complexes, Christmas tree farms, ditch banks, ornamental plant nurseries, golf courses, lumber yards, warehouses, schools, storage areas, railroads, constructions sites prior to building or laying asphalt, conservation properties, and other areas.

When to Use

Apply to control target weeds during daylight hours when the weather is sunny, warm, and calm so that the chemicals move through the weeds faster. It is also beneficial to make applications when the plants are young and actively growing.

Do not treat weeds if there is drought, disease, or insect damage as this may cause weed control to be less effective in allowing the product to soak into the foliage.

Spray on calm days when wind speeds are low to minimize accidental spray drift.

Safety Information

This is safe to use around children or pets when applied according to the product label. Always wear the proper personal protective equipment when mixing or applying Ranger Pro Herbicide (gloves, long pants, safety mask, protective eyewear).

Special Considerations

Remember that Ranger Pro is a non-selective, post-emergent herbicide and will negatively affect or kill desired plants if foliar contact is made. Always be mindful of spray drift so that you do not accidentally spray wanted turf grass or other desirable plants.
