Tools Needed

A backpack sprayer, handheld pump sprayer, compression sprayer, boom sprayer, or spray rig can be used. 

How to Use

• Step 1: Determine how much Trimec 1000 Low-Odor Herbicide to use by measuring the square footage of the treatment area. Find the square footage by measuring the treatment area's length and width in feet, then multiply them together (length X width = square footage). For acreage, take the square footage and divide it by one acre (square footage / 43,560 sq. ft. = acres). For cool-seasoned turf, apply 1.1 to 1.5 fl. oz. of Trimec 1000 Low-Odor Herbicide per 0.125 to 5.0 gallons of water per 1,000 sq. ft. For warm-seasoned turf, use 0.75 to 0.83 fl. oz. of product per 0.125 to 5.0 gallons of water per 1,000 sq. ft. Refer to the product label for specific application rates and restrictions.  
• Step 2: Fill the sprayer tank with half the amount of water, add the proper amount of product, and then pour in the remaining half of the water. Close the tank lid and shake until the solution is well-mixed. 
• Step 3: Set the sprayer nozzle to a coarse spray pattern then spray evenly across the treatment area. Be sure the top and bottom of weed leaves are wet, but not to the point of runoff. If possible, do not irrigate or water the turfgrass within 8 to 24 hours after application. If dry conditions exist, a scheduled irrigation or watering 24 hours before and 24 hours after application is recommended.
• Step 4: A second broadcast application or a follow-up application as a spot treatment is advised for more mature weeds, dense infestations, and adverse environmental conditions.
