Vision Blue Marking Dye
Vision Blue Marking Dye is a spray colorant that can be mixed in with turf and lawn treatment products to help indicate where the products have been applied. All areas treated with Vision Blue temporarily turn blue. It is non-toxic and safe to use around wildlife.
Vision Blue Marking Dye is manufactured by Solutions Pest & Lawn and is a temporary colorant that shows exactly where turf and lawn care product applications have been made. The highly visible color helps prevent wasteful skips and overlaps.
Add Vision Blue Marking Dye to spray tanks filled with any premixed insecticide, herbicide, fungicide, or fertilizer. The blue color will indicate which areas have been treated or missed.
Using Vision Blue Marking Dye will help protect plants from being accidentally sprayed with herbicides and save money by helping to conserve products. It is safe for residential or commercial use and is a great product when treating large places with easy-to-miss areas.
Tools Needed
To use Vision Blue Marking Dye, mix the product with a selected pesticide in a spraying tank. You may also need a measuring cup or spoon to measure the appropriate amount of dye.
How to Use
- Step 1: Mix the appropriate amount of Vision Blue Marking Dye in a sprayer tank that is already filled with pre-mixed insecticide, herbicide, fungicide, or fertilizer. The label recommends 32 fl. oz. per 100 gallons of spray solution.
- Step 2: Mix your pesticide product in your tank following the product's recommended mix procedure. Then, add your measured amount of Vision Blue Dye. Shake or agitate the sprayer tank to mix well.
- Step 3: Spray areas with the Vision Blue dye and pesticide mixture, preferably under fan spray settings, to ensure even, clear coverage.
Where to Use
Vision Blue Marking Dye can be used anywhere outdoors. It is a great product for large turf areas. It helps applicators keep track of fertilizers and insecticides so that they are applied evenly and prevents situations where desired plants are accidentally sprayed with herbicides with overspray or drift.
When to Use
Vision Blue Marking Dye can be used outdoors any time a turf or lawn is being treated with an insecticide, herbicide, fungicide, or fertilizer. It is especially useful for keeping track of where treatments have occurred to prevent overspraying and product waste.
Safety Information
Vision Blue Marking Dye is safe to use around children and pets when used according to the product label. Always follow the label of the product Vision Blue Marking Dye is mixed with. Always wear the proper personal protective equipment (gloves, safety glasses, safety mask) when applying Vision Blue Marking Dye with any compatible product.
Special Considerations
Vision Blue Marking Dye may stain certain surface areas. Always spray a small, inconspicuous spot before fully treating around driveways, sidewalks, or building structures.
