How to use
First, determine the type of sprayer you're using. Then, refer to "Mixing Instructions" to look up the proper amount of product to add to the sprayer based on the type of sprayer you're using and the type of grass you're spraying. Next, add product to a Tank Sprayer or Ortho® Dial-N-Spray® along with water if indicated. Finally, turn the dial on the Dial-N-Spray to the correct setting (if using). Then, apply at the correct time and avoid spraying as a fine mist, which can cause injury to other plants. The maximum application rate is 6.0 fl. oz. of product per 1,000 sq ft per application and no more than 2 treatments per year. Remember: A little goes a long way with this herbicide. More is not better, as over-application or rates above those recommended on this label can cause grass injury!

Cautions
Spray when weeds are actively growing, temperatures are below 90 degrees, and outdoor conditions are calm and not windy, and there is not rain expected on the day of application. This will help to avoid damage to the lawn, as well as spray drift, drip, mist, or splash at the application site, which could harm desirable broadleaf plants and surrounding ecosystems.
Disposal Methods
This container is nonrefillable. When empty, place bottles in trash or thoroughly rinse and recycle when possible. If the container is not completely empty, call your local solid waste agency for disposal instructions. Please, never place unused product down any indoor or outdoor drain.
Kids & Pets
Although people and pets should remain out of the application area during treatment, they may safely reenter once the area has dried. Better yet, this weed killer for grass becomes rainproof in only 1 hour, so you can get back to enjoying your yard in no time!
Mowing Tips
To ensure the absolute best results, delay mowing 2 days before and do not mow until 2 days after the application of this product. Taking this extra precaution will enhance the effectiveness of the spray and keep harmful ingredients off your lawn equipment.
