It can be applied in a multitude of ways and controls everything from goosegrass to crabgrass. Whether it's dallisgrass or clover, Pylex herbicide works quickly to eliminate the weeds.
How Pylex Herbicide Works
Pylex herbicide contains the active ingredient topramezone. This chemical provides systemic activity, targeting the specific weeds without harming the labeled turf sites. It's absorbed into the weeds by the shoots, roots and leaves and moves through the plants, disrupting enzyme production. It halts weed growth and kills them within a couple weeks of application. It can be mixed with a crop oil concentrate for more effectiveness.
