Application & Use Instructions
Timing:
Apply Destro 375 when weeds are actively growing, typically during warm conditions. Best results occur when weeds are small and before tillering.
Rates:

Apply 1.0 – 2.5 L/ha depending on weed species and growth stage.
-
For small areas, this equates to 10 – 25 mL per 100 m² in sufficient water to ensure even coverage.
-
Always refer to label directions for specific turf species and weed targets.
Application Tips:
-
Use a boom or knapsack sprayer calibrated for uniform application.
-
Do not mow turf for 2 days before or after application.
-
Avoid spraying when rain is expected within 3 hours.
-
Do not apply to turf under stress from drought, heat, or disease.
-
Repeat applications may be required for dense infestations or regrowth.
