Trimec 992 Broadleaf Herbicide

Trimec 992 Broadleaf Herbicide, manufactured by PBI Gordon, is a post-emergent herbicide that controls broadleaf weeds. It is designed for turfgrass applications, non-crop, and industrial vegetation management applications.

This herbicide features three active ingredients with multiple modes of action for fast weed control. After application, Trimec 992 will translocate through the targeted plant, causing weed stems to curl and twist, leaf cupping, and withering, leading to the weed's death.

Trimec 992 Broadleaf Herbicide is an economic herbicide that saves money when sprayed over warm—and cool-seasoned grasses, landscapes, and ornamentals.

Tools Needed

You will need to mix the product into a sprayer of your choosing, such as a backpack, hose-end, or handheld pump sprayer. A handheld pump sprayer works best for the average job.

How to Use

• Step 1: Determine how much Trimec 992 Broadleaf Herbicide to use by measuring the square footage of the treatment area. Do this by measuring the treatment area's length and width in feet and multiplying them together (length X width = square footage). For acreage, divide the square footage by one acre (square footage / 43,560 sq. ft. = acres). Mix at a rate of 1.1 to 1.5 oz. of Trimec 992 Broadleaf Herbicide per 0.125 to 5 gallons of water per 1,000 sq. ft. of listed cool-seasoned or warm-seasoned turf. Refer to the label for specific application rates and restrictions.
• Step 2: Fill the spray tank with half the water and the proper amount of product, then pour in the remaining half of the water. Close the spray tank lid and agitate well until mixed.
• Step 3: Apply the Trimec 992 solution to the target weed, ensuring uniform coverage via the fan-spray setting. Depending on the weed issue and the infestation's severity, you can spot-treat or broadcast the product over an area.
• Step 4: Reapply the product after 30 days for total control.

Where to Use

Trimec 992 Broadleaf Herbicide can be used on warm and cool-seasoned grasses on residential/domestic, ornamental turf, institutional, non-cropland, and agricultural (commercial sod production) sites.

When to Use

Use this product upon the first sign of broadleaf weeds emerging on your turf. Apply when weeds are young and actively growing.

Avoid applying during high temperatures and when it is dry. Fall applications can provide improved control for emerged winter annuals and perennials.

Spot treatments during summer may be appropriate for sparse infestations, as a follow-up application, or when broadleaf weeds are actively growing.

Application of Trimec 992 should be delayed 3 to 4 weeks after newly sodded, sprigged, or plugged areas.

Safety Information

Trimec 992 Broadleaf 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 out of treated areas until 48 hours have passed after application. 

Special Considerations

Trimec 992 is limited to 2 broadcast treatments per site per year. Certain spray additives, liquid fertilizers, and tank mixtures containing emulsifiable concentrates may reduce selectivity.
