Rodeo Aquatic Herbicide
Rodeo Aquatic Herbicide
Rodeo Aquatic Herbicide is an effective non-selective post-emergent herbicide that eliminates unwanted plants on land and aquatic areas.
Rodeo Aquatic Herbicide, manufactured by DOW/CORTEVA, is a superior glyphosate-based herbicide that controls various types of unwanted vegetation.
It contains glyphosate, effective against perennial, annual, and woody weeds. The solution is quickly absorbed into the foliage of targeted plants and travels to the roots, with results that can be seen in as soon as 2 days.
Rodeo Aquatic Herbicide is ideal for industrial lands, wildlife properties, and aquatic areas. It is also great for clearing land around utility structures and pipelines, drainage ditches, canals, etc.
Tools Needed
A backpack sprayer, handheld pump sprayer, or professional skid sprayer is needed.
How to Use
- Step 1: Determine how much Rodeo Herbicide to use by measuring the square footage of the treatment area. To do this, measure the length and width of the treatment area in feet, then multiply them together (length x width = square footage). For acreage, take the square footage and divide by one acre (square footage / 43,560 = acreage). The application rate of Rodeo Herbicide varies depending on where you are spraying and the concentration ratio, which ranges from a 0.5% ratio (2/3 fl. oz. per gallon to cover 1,000 sq. ft.) up to a 10% ratio (13 fl. oz. per gallon to cover 1,000 sq. ft). So, for example, if you calculated a 2,000 sq. ft. treatment area and wanted to use a 1% dilution ratio (1.33 fl. oz. per gallon), you would need to mix 2.66 fl. oz. of Rodeo Herbicide in at least 2 gallons of water.
- Step 2: To make general-purpose applications with a handheld pump sprayer, fill the spray tank with a half gallon of water. Add the correct amount of Rodeo to the spray tank based on your calculations and desired dilution ratio. Add 0.67 (0.5% ratio) to 1 (0.75% ratio) ounce of Rodeo to 1 gallon of water for low-volume sprays. For spot treatments of trees or brush control, add 6.5 (5% ratio) to 13 (10% ratio) ounces of Rodeo to 1 gallon of water. Mix well with the other half gallon of water in the spray tank.
- Step 3: Spray the mixture on desired areas where targeted weeds are growing. Spray to wet but not to the point of runoff. Use a fan spray nozzle setting for even coverage.
Where to Use
Rodeo Aquatic Herbicide is ideal for controlling unwanted vegetation in plantations, forests for site preparation, mid-rotation release treatments, timber stand improvement activities, non-crop sites such as industrial sites and rights-of-way (roadsides, electric utility, and transmission lines, pipelines, railroads, airports), irrigation and drainage ditches, canals, reservoirs, natural areas, rangeland, in and around aquatic sites and wetlands.
When to Use
For maximum results when controlling annual weeds, apply when targeted weeds are small and actively growing. For maximum results when controlling perennial weeds, apply when targeted weeds are reaching maturity.
If applications are made before rainy weather, additional applications of this product may be needed.
Apply only to sensitive areas such as residential properties, bodies of water, and cropland areas when spray drift is least likely due to windy weather.
Safety Information
Rodeo Aquatic Herbicide is safe to use around children and pets when applied according to the product label instructions. Always wear the proper personal protective equipment (PPE) when mixing and applying this product.
Keep people and pets off-treated areas until the spray solution has dried.
Special Considerations
Rodeo Aquatic Herbicide cannot be mixed in, stored in, or applied in containers or spray tanks made with galvanized steel or unlined steel (unless they are stainless steel).

Keith's Pro Tips | "For best results when applying Rodeo Herbicide, cover the top half of the plant and at least half of the total foliage. To ensure adequate spray coverage, spray both sides of large or tall woody brush and trees when foliage is thick and dense or where there are multiple sprouts." |
Product Drawbacks | Rodeo Aquatic Herbicide does not provide long term residual effects in the soil. For residual effects we recommend a pre-emergent herbicide that is label approved for the land type that controls the unwanted vegetation. |
