Trade Advice:

General Instructions: GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS: To be effective, Surefire Slayer Organic Herbicide must come into contact with the green parts of the plant. It acts on the foliage, causing it to quickly dehydrate and collapse. Results are seen as browning and wilting usually within hours of application. Surefire Slayer Organic Herbicide will control many weed species and is non selective.

MIXING Half fill spray tank and commence agitation. Slowly add required amount of Surefire Slayer Organic Herbicide. Top up with required quantity of water. Agitate well before commencing spray procedure. Do not mix more than is needed.

APPLICATION Ensure that all weed foliage is totally covered with spray as Surefire Slayer Organic Herbicide is a contact spray only. Partial coverage will give only partial control. Apply by ground equipment only using for example boom or spot sprayers. Apply using a coarse droplet spray. Optimum application volumes are related to weed maturity and density. Contact with the weeds is essential for control, as such apply in sufficient water to ensure complete and thorough coverage of foliage. DO NOT spray porous surfaces without prior testing. May cause discolouration on porous hard surfaces.
